Thanks. Merged and renamed to the one there was before cause tea brewing isn't the only command.
Good Luck

"grab chips" is another action that gets stuck in the queue.
(edit: also "watch", which happens when another Sim is playing an instrument, will sometimes remain after they've stopped.
"put away" (books) also gets stuck, but i haven't seen it as often.
also "wait for coffee to brew".)

icoI've just had something like this happen for the second time in as many days. Different Sim, but both had the Sleep action stuck in their queue. I can only get them to do one other task at a time now. For example, I was finally able to get one Sim to eat by putting the food on the table myself first. But when I tried to get her to get the food from the fridge then watch tv she just stood there. Nothing was in the way. The sleep icon stayed while she went to work and came back, moving her to a different household didn't stop it either though that has worked before.

sometimes they will be shown as chatting to another Sim. the overhead bar shows, but the active Sim is sleeping, for example. but now that i think of it... i can't be sure if the queue bubble gets stuck. just need to test again.
(edit: when a Sim is dancing and that action is replaced with "listen deeply", i've seen that "dancing" will not clear from the active tasks.
"listen to dramatic story" gets stuck once in a while, often when another (inter)action is queued after it. if that happens, a white bubble showing two silhouettes close to each other appears, instead of one that shows a Sim's face, and it remains in the active tasks section. the interaction is not taking place anymore, a different one is, but it still won't clear.
"resume (recipe)" also gets stuck from time to time, but not that often as the above. they have already finished cooking and eating, and are doing something else. clicking on the bubble to "cancel" this not-ongoing action doesn't make it disappear.
another one is "go jogging". it often remains even after cancelling it and having Sims do something else.)

"resetsim firstname lastname"
No need to save and reload.

@crinrict, Not sure if this is related or not (so I apologize if it is not) but every time I have a Vampire drink from another Sim, the compel to drink action stays in the queue long after the Vampire has finished their meal. Sometimes I have 2 of these in my queue if the Vampire has had more than one meal. The action icon stays until I play again (but I haven't tried to reset the Vampire like @99publicidentity suggested , so I'll have to try that! ) It happens with every Vampire and I have no CC or Mods, and it was like this from day one.
