This is a needed mod for those of us who hate when Sims do frustratingly silly things. Thanks for bringing back a little realism to the game.

I love this mod. It's a much needed improvement to both mods. Even without the keep holding thing it would be awesome, always bugged me that call options disappear when using the phone so you had to queue up everything before starting. The keep holding is the cherry on top of the delicious sundae. Great idea, great execution. Thank you for sharing with the rest of us

Every time I think TS2 can't be improved upon and that it's reached its maximum potential, someone like you comes along and makes mods like this. Such a small thing, but such a big annoyance. Thank you so much!

Thanks guys

@wolilinbin, oh, I don't think they can talk on the phone while sitting down. At least I don't remember seeing that...
I mean the sims in game, not people.

The Newspaper mod works like a charm. Thank you!

Fabulous! Any chance you can do the same for baby interactions? I hate it when they put their baby on the floor and then pick it up for the next interaction in their queue.

Love this, but my sims are no longer able to put newspapers (old or new) in the compost.

@SciBirg, do they? I thought they could hold babies between actions and drop it when they want to do something else. But I aggree the putting on the floor thing is unpleasant anyway. They should use a crib. Although, I'd be surprised if there isn't a mod for that already. I think I saw something like this. Or was it Sims 3?

@blockparty, mine are. Do you have other mods for newspapers? There might be a conflict. If you don't, could you describe what happens or post an error log?

I'm sorry, it appears I was mistaken and the missing compost option is unrelated to your mod.

I'm not into newspapers, but the phone one is definitely one of the best mods ever! Thanks a lot!

Thank you, Lamare. It always bugged me that the sims would get up from reading the newspaper and put it down just to pick it up to look for a job or do the crossword. Again, many thanks!

Love the newspaper mod ... allows Sims to read the paper in a realistic manner. I love being able to queue which sections of the newspaper Sims read according to their interests; and it is executed flawlessly.

Thanks! It is good. I think you are able to make a mod that sims can use their cell phones while they are sitting, I always wanted that since I saw in The Sims 4.

I did some experiments. The animation doesn't look good, and I decided to give up on the idea. I didn't want it bad enough to learn how to do animations.
