You know you've played too much Sims when..

[HammerOfRage]

When I do the panic dance because there's a spider on the wall. *facepalm* My fiance (who, sadly, doesn't play Sims) thought I was losing my marbles.




...He has Computer Whiz, Mean Spirited, Good Sense of Humor, Genius, and Night Owl traits, so I suppose that also explains the addiction.

I can see his point-Sims don't exactly look sane when they panic.

[Seabody]

... when you hear an ad for something unrelated to Sims that uses the Sims 3 buy mode music, and wonder how much Steve Jablonsky/EA got paid.
(For reference, Kiwi Simmers, it's that Ice Bar Co. ad)

Especially when they rant about not being able to get to the bookcase because the bookcase is in the way. .

When you take fashion tips from in-game clothing.  "Hey, I want a pair of pants like that!"

I do that with Sim hairstyles. I always want to try them out on me and then they never quite work out

Or they can't harvest a plant because the plant is in the way.  I'm pretty sure that plant is not going to move out of the way. 

You know you've played too much Sims when you spend all night dreaming about them and then boot up your computer in the morning and wonder why Steam hasn't clock the last 6 hours of Sims.

That still bothers me in this one other game called Family Game Night 3! One of the minigames uses it… and I didn’t see his name in the credits. At least EA had co-developed it.

... You try to use edge scrolling on your desktop
And press Ctrl-Shift-C instead of Ctrl-Alt-Del

[Chuckles_82]

hahah that's funny. I like that one.

[Eldridge]

...when I describe my current situation with status bar like in The Sims 

and when I wish that I had a moodlet manager!

[RainBeau]

You break down after not playing for days. And when you ask your co-workers what would be the worst thing to happen to you, aside from someone dying, and they say "Your Sims died?" And your response is, "I said no one died!"

[juliette]

When i talk with my friend and I "see" green "++" above our heads

[Eldridge]

When I wish that I have a 'dreaming about' option like the children and teenagers sims had while sleeping

[Gameactive]

I was being bothered by some people at school today, and I wanted to click them and tell them “Stop doing that!” so badly.

I’ve also been trying to fast-forward a lot of load screens lately. I guess getting more used to x-second load times set me off from the x-minute load times The Sims 3 offers. :-|
