the questionable routing mechanics in the games, especially TS1, are probably my favourite. Seeing sims unable to get through spaces that look perfectly fine to get through is incredibly frustrating as I'm sure anyone who has ever built things in TS1 or any game would be able to say. The fact that in TS1 (and maybe later games too, I can't remember for sure) you can trap sims inside a tiny fence that would be easy to climb over and having them die is another good one that defies all sense of logic. Honourable mentions go to the nightclubs in TS3:LN when the elevator glitches and sims just stand around there forever, and to the guinea pig death in TS1, which, when I first saw it, I thought the sim just died for no reason. In general stuff related to the limitations of the game and glitches is always a good source of stupidity and frustration.
