I'm pretty sure many of you have read the "You know you've been playing The sims too muchwhen..." but if not, here's an example: "You've been playing Sims 2 too much when you look above you to see if God has you selected."
This is just the same but with Sims 2.
How do you know you've been playing to much?

I still make "noise" like "blah-blah-la-bleh ...." in the Sims 1 from time to time when I do housework, but I wasn't into the Sims 1.
I don't know how, why it was stuck in my mind for all these years.

Hopefully, it can be cured one day. XD

When you think of relationships on a scale of 1-100, and can imagine after everything you say, little people above your head with a green plus or a red minus


I serioiusly have thought of doing that while hanging out with my friends

EDIT:

True story, my stove caught a grease fire while I was looking through these forums, and I did the whole fire dance before putting it out XD

when you get annoyed with your friends who also play Sims 2 but have no idea what BoolProp is or what Maxis means

when you make it a goal in your life to get all of your friends addicted to the Sims 2

when you get mad at your friends who you got addicted to the Sims 2 because they get an expansion pack before you do

when you spend too much time in class scribbling ideas for your Sim's names

when you get depressed realizing how hard it will be to work for Maxis and test the Sims 2 games for a living since you have no connections with anyone who works there :( :(

when you spend $1,500 on a new gaming computer just to be able to play the Sims 2

I've mentioned this one before, but thought it was funny enough to repeat....when you're sitting in a restaurant, and a couple comes in - first thing that pops into your head is "What a funny-looking baby they'd have. I hope it doesn't get his chin!" and you're thinking of this in Sim-genetics terms. I am so guilty of this.

-Write an english essay in simlish and then speak in simlish to explain it when the teacher goes bonkers
-Forget that spaghetti takes 10 mins to cook rather than 1 hour
-Set baked alaska alight
-look for the sims brodcasting network when channel hopping
-when depressed say "My plumbob is red"
-sift through garbage and expect to earn cash from a spork
-Call your kitten a 'Nooboo'

I find myself tapping my chin, then pointing and saying "Oh Yeah" when engaged in conversation with my friends.

When you start to see the objects, doors and wallpapers in real life, you're playing way too much. (I see stuff all the time)

BTW, it's too bad that we don't just turn into an urn when we die. Think of all the funeral bills it will save our loved ones...

You've been playing sims too long when... you realize "hey I just paid a 800-1,000 on a computer when all I use it for it playing sims.


You know you've been playing sims too long when... you turn on your computer and the fist thing you do is go to sims 2 community to see what others have to say about the game or mod the sims to look at new down loads.

This is a true story, not one word of a lie.
I was walking down the street one day and we passed a hairdresser salon thing, and they had some really nice wigs on display. I started looking for the 'download' button. My aunt walked up to me and said 'what are you doing?' And of course I replied 'I can't get this hair mesh into my game cos' I can't find the download button'.
She laughed. I laughed when I realised what I had done.

Also my story Dollhouse, i'll suddenly get an idea of a name for a new character or i'll get a plot idea. I'll whip out a peice of paper and wright it down. I think about it constantly. I play too much, thus is dominates my mind. (But I still need names, I'm not good at them XD. I'm picky and to me characters names are like baby names. Thought and mulled over.) My friends wondor what i'm writing and I'll hiss in reply and they'll back away slowly.

(If you haven't figured out i'm inexplicably evil, Muwahaha!)

You're beginning to do some Sim animations, like the shrug and the dance moves.

You're so terrified of losing your Sims that you consider paying $160 to let the guys at Best Buy attempt to back up all your ~10GB of saved games and downloads! I didn't want to spend all that money for something that wasn't guaranteed, so I just took a huge chance. I still have everything intact, thank goodness!

You're so bored when your computer is gone that you loll around not knowing what to do for 8 days (and sleep about 3 hours earlier each night, too)!

You spend 30 minutes to an hour looking at naming sites just to find the perfect Irish/Turkish name for a Sim baby.

When you put a painting of your boyfriend's in EVERY house that is occupied in your neighbourhood and have ALL the families standing in front of that painting and take LOTS of pictures of that...And planning on making those pictures into an album and give it to him as the best B-Day gift you can give (He himself is a crazy simmer)... :D

When you not only create a neighborhood full of Sims of people you know, but you also talk about it to your friends, and you see nothing wrong with it. "Well, you got knocked up by DJ, and Anthony gave birth to alien babies. Oh, and Kris caught on fire while cooking."

When you have a whole photo album on Facebook devoted to pictures you've taken of your Sims.

When your idea of stress relief is to create a Sim of someone you dislike and torture the Sim until you feel better.

you buy a baby name book for better Sim names



I do this, except I use the phonebook (once or twice I've even gone through my old yearbooks) :anime:

When you create a webpage dedicated exclusively to your Sims

You expect a helicopter to pick you up for work

When something is even remotely in your way, you stomp your feet and wave at the sky

When you clothes shopping and you find clothes that resemble the clothes your sim wear and you cause a scene.

"OMG MY SIM HAS THIS, HE LOOKS SO GOOD IN IT."

And you don't even buy it you just flip out when you come across something they own .

Happened many times to me. I love the peoples reactions.

- When you wanna buy a new piece of furniture, you go into "Buy Mode".
- Everybody knows how to smustle dance.
- You look at people like they're loony when they smustle dance or vice versa.
- Whenever you stargaze through your telescope you're always at risk of getting abducted by aliens whether you know it or not.
- Whenever you see somebody you think is hot, a thought bubble appears above your head with their face in it a little hearts above it.

We have this nail salon at Walmart it's called Regal Nails and this guy that works in it looks JUST like Mitch Indie :). So I call him Mitch mentally when I see him, and I try not to giggle when I check him out.

You try to figure out how to approximate your favorite businesses from your favorite role-playing environment in TS2. (As is, I could probably create about half of Gaia Online if I had all the EPs.)

This happened to me last night during a real rain storm while I was playing Sims 2.

You know you've been playing Sims 2 too much when you look up at your ceiling to see how bad the sky looks during a real rain storm then feel stupid because you can't see the sky - only your ceiling!

When you'd rather undergo the strenuous, excruciatingly boring process of making 27 default replacement face templates so your Sims'd look prettier than, you know, study for the all-important GRE which will determine your future ;).

I spent hours tweaking and re-tweaking my self-Sim while getting frustrated that my real life face is too short for a perfectly-proportioned self-Sim to breed well DX.

Related to computers--I'm particularly sensitive to this issue, LOL:

--When you yell, berate, or scowl at the computer screen because you're jealous of someone's brand-new, shiny computer with an awesome graphics card.
--When you go on computer manufacturer websites and build a couple of systems you would like to have while knowing all the while that you can't click the "order" button (see below).
--When you have seriously considered spending $1500 for a new computer without your parents' permission or knowledge. Naughty, I know :(.

This sums it all up, pretty much: When you realize full well that you have far more important things to do than play Sims 2, but do it anyway simply because you love it.

When you press ctrl + shift + C instead of ctrl + alt + delete and get really angry when nothing happens.

When you dream about sims 2.

When you can creepily understand simmish language.

When your looking at a house and you think "I can make that on sims 2"

When you get upset when one of your sims dies.

When you actually WANT to download the sims 2 songs =/ lol.

When you want to use a cheat to make someone love you.

When it annoys you if your sister/friends play the game and they think knowing the money cheat is being addicted to the game lol.

When your kinda attracted to one of your sims o.0

When you think to yourself "That girl/boy looks like that sim" LOL a girl in my school looks so much like the maxis template face lol.

When you nearly ask someone "did you hear the music after you woohooed" when asking you do you think their pregnant. LMAO I was sooo close to saying it then I thought ... WTF? lol.

When you think "He/she has a romance/family aspiration" lol.

When you think to YOURSELF what aspiration have you got.

When you think to yourself "what would that song sound like in simmish language"







.... we need help o.0 lol.

- When you put your headphones on at night so you can turn the sound up to full blast and listen to the music you put on thier radio, and when one of the simlish songs comes on you sing it like it was one of your own, knowing all the words.

- When you go to bed at night and think 'Right so today i grew him up, got her pregnant and....." etc, and then thinking about what your planning to do tomorow.

When it's your 20th birthday and someone says that you're no longer a teenager, you imagine yourself actually transitioning into an adult. And you almost expect it to happen. And you get cranky that there's no candles on the cake so you can try it out. (Yes, I actually did this...)

Alright well I brought my seven month old too bed after her morning bottle and apparently later on in a half sleep dream, I felt her starting to wake up and I was still tired so in my dream/in my head in real life, I used Motive Adjustor from Insimenator and boosted all of her stats to 100% and then marked her energy down to 50% so I wouldn't have to get up for a bottle or diaper and she'd go back to sleep.
I think I might be crazy.

when you mean "his" you say, "my wife gave birth to twins last night."

when you look at a screen shot and forget it's just a picture and try to click buttons such as Live Mode or the Play button.


haha, yeah, so whenever we talk about sim life in public we would yell "ON THE SIIIIIMS."
