The simlish TV programs are cute but I've heard them enough for a lifetime and now I can actually keep my earbuds in without regrets. Thank you!

You're welcome! This was one of the first mods I ever made, because the incredibly loud televisions annoyed me SO much. I don't know if Maxis made them that loud as some sort of commentary on our society, or if it was just a mistake, but they're so loud.
It's actually super easy to make an object silent. Open it in IFF Pencil 2, delete the sound files, and save it. That's all it takes! I think I'll make a bookcase that eliminates some of the male reading noises, because the male voice actor did so much more muttering for the reading than the female voice actor, and the sound of the guys reading gets annoying after awhile.
Hey, I'm an old lady, so I'll allowed to be a curmudgeon!
I've made some mods for The Sims 1 -- yes, The Sims ONE :-) -- which you can find at
