You know you've been playing Sim City to much when you walk by a crime in progress and look for the "Dispatch Police" button rather than call 911.

I have a good one.. true story thanks to my mom, had a chat about going on a vacation with her during summer break, and she talks about the city hall planing trips for people who lived in the area.

This is MY punch line... if you played it for loooong (I haven't touched it in months) you wonder if anyone will come out a MOD for city hall.. something of like in RL taking your annoying sims out for a weeks vacation! LOL

^^LOL! That's pretty much me sometimes.

After you crash you crash you think "hmm, there was that funky glitch again, I should have hit ctrl+s asap..." and fire up the game again instantly.

1. When you hear the school bell in SC; you say Oh crap! I'm late for the bus!

2. When someone's breaking into your house at day and ur playing SC4, u try to press dispatch police button and drag it off the screen.

3. When you drive around NAM roundabouts in a circle.

4. When you track your MySim's every move, and watch them walk, talk, and drive.

5. Last but not least! When you are the only kid in class writing stuff down during a fight!

when the game crashes after not saving for some reasion and you start crying histaricly and yell at your computer out of anger and decide to pay the computer back by demolishing the keyboard with repetitive bashes to the desk.

when you fall asleap on the desk after hour and hours and probably days of working towards very very very little. like getting paid $0 for building the empire state building from scratch in real life, all by yourself.
