You know you've played SC too much when every week you need to get a new prescription for your glasses. Oh, and when you buy more Tylenol and Motrin than groceries. True story.

But when your Sims decide that, you know you've been playing too long!

When your spouse feels neglected, it may be time to cut back...I know this from exp.


Let no one yield, we're on the field where deeds eclipse the sun; where the brave are told on a thread of gold, the tapestry is spun. As they speak of dreams, their armor gleams, this calm before the storm... Where all can see their destiny, the bishop takes the pawn.

... you dream about being a Sim in one of your cities.

pagenotfound: happens to me a lot, but I usually draw out plans for road networks, and instead of on papers, I tend to draw in books I'm supposed to be annotating.

autovino: uh... just plain weird...

Is when you make a huge region with billions of sims in one day or if you make the complete earth in one sitting with every city in the world!

You look at Google Earth and think "what a sloppy layout, they'll never get any Co$$$ with that road network."

When you've gone through two laptops, eleven flash drives, and half a desktop's CPU full of memory just for plugins. True story. Here's a better one: when you hear a great song (in my case, Girls in Their Summer Clothes) and you picture how that place would look if you made it. Seriously, I keep picturing drawing out Blessing Avenue with all these stores downtown and Frank's Dinr out on the edge of town. Oh my God, what's happening to me?!

When you go into a city and say: "Look at that building style, I think it's Chicago- 1890....oh, wait, maybe New York- 1940"

When you're in Manhattan and look at the brownstones and think that they can't be a tile, how did they do it, overlaying lots? Seriously, I thought that yesterday.
