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

[Deklitch]

On your daily constitutional you think you see a wedding arch in someone's back yard, and when you get closer you realise it is a mini tractor piece of machinery with its arm and digger arched over, and after firstly wondering about whose getting married, you then wonder if they are building a basement for their museum pieces.

I was at work the other day, it's quite an impersonal looking office with a clear desk policy. I started daydreaming about how I'd make over the place Sims style!

I've spent way too much time wondering how I could replicate my house in TS3. The problem is it has five different levesl, six if you count the lowest level of the deck. Two steps up, two more steps up, one step down, twelve steps up....it's way beyond me. Playing the sims makes me obsess about the oddest things.

... when you imagine the little green ++-marks over people's heads when they talk, and think what should you add to your queue...

[BotanicGarden]

When you think about what you should add to your queue, or accidently say "Sul sul!" To your sons in the morning. Good thing that my whole family loves sims as they replied "Dag dag!" back.

On your daily constitutional you spend more time looking at the houses working out how you'd do them in Sms 3 than at the people coming in the opposite direction, and you almost run into them and their dogs/bikes/prams.

Google street view is your friend and Google Earth.

After closing down my compter, I wanted to turn off my speakers by clicking them with my mouse, thinking there'd be an 'turn speakers off'-option...

When you meet someone new and all you can think is "Oh my gosh is that really your name, I have a sim named that." 

[Caterina]

When you are listening to the radio and you find out that the song you are listening to is by Ed Sheeran and you think "Oh, I know who that is I saw his Sim in the gallery the other day."

[Deklitch]

You get back from your daily constitutional and think, I've still got 2 hours until work, I can at least play for another hour.

You look up and realise the one hour has become 1 1/2 hours

I love this thread!

When you hear of someone named "Arlo" and you chuckle and think how unfortunate that is.

When you hear of someone named "Arlo" and you chuckle and think how unfortunate that is.

Oh no, no! That's SO unfortunate! I'm laughing too hard.

[Tygresa]

I know that I am playing Sims too long is when I dream about being a sim in my own game.
