    @BlackSand I have kept a Sim long enough to run out of things to purchase, but you make my poor Sim look like a nooboo!
    p.s. pickles are gross. :s;)

    When you're away from home, and you miss your Sims so much you try to draw them despite your noob drawing skills and simplistic style…

    All three were drawn from memory. At least this was good practice.

    This is a cool drawing, you're very talented :smile:

    (Which pose pack did you use? :lol: --> I think that's examples my addiction).

    When your sim spends all day washing laundry, and THAT is what reminds you to wash your own piling up laundry.

    Seriously, I have a sim household of 8 all age categories of child through adult. Only one of whom ever bothers to wash laundry (or clean up after them self). 8 bedrooms with full laundry hampers, 3 bathrooms with full hampers, 1 full hamper by the underground pool, plus 2 full hampers in the household's exercise room. In addition to various piles of cloths in the halls and living room. Between cooking supper, washing laundry, and cleaning the house the (much overworked) house wife in that household didn't have more then a few minutes in-game to herself. The family does have a Bonehilda coffin. But Bonehilda has apparently decided "enough is enough" and stopped cleaning up the various messes. She'll fix anything that breaks, but otherwise just downs blender made mixed drinks.

    When your room is full of laundry, scatterd on the floor, not in the basket, and you think to yourself it's acceptable because the sims do it too.

    It isn't? :( I guess I'd better get to my laundry then. :D

    My six year old nephew literally says that his "fun bar" is "0%" when he's bored, that his "hunger" is 100% when he's full and don't want to eat anymore, etc.

    I was on the bus talking to my friend about a teen marriage mod and a teacher a few rows ahead of us shouted, "Scandalous!"

    I don't know about you, but as for me- I started to do this only after the sims. I guess there is a causal relationship between the two :lol:

    When I tell my friends about the game they usually ask at some point "what's happening when you're not playing? does the game continues without you?" so I answer "no, it continues from the point you stopped". But deep inside, when not playing more than a few days, I just feel the need to open the game even for a short time just to check up on my cute sims, I just miss them. They are like individual entities in my life.

    When you have a whole week off and are excitedly looking forward to simming everyday, but spend the week trying to figure out how to solve the computer problems so that your game will play instead. :rage:

    When sims and people from real life mix up in your dreams.
    (I dreamt Gage Briody (SV NPC) and the guy I bought my car from are the same person. :lol: When I woke up I thought to myself "yeah, they actually do look similar" :lol: )

    When you manage to catch the daily deal you were waiting for, and are happy about that even a week later.

    Your computer breaks and you think your life is over because your sim can't progress through her university classes and skill building becuase you can't play the game. Why did you have to break! Wahaaaaaaay?! (My PC broke, power supply overheated even though I've got an effing fan pointed at my motherboard, the downfalls of living in a tropical country. And it broke before i could saaaaaave!)

    When you take a detour past the new housing estate near you because you want to get inspiration for a new build in game. The first time I did this my Husband thought I was wanting us to move house!
  • Faerie197Faerie197 Posts: 1,077 Member
    @Faerie197 I ran into the same problem when I had a family of 8 in Twinbrook. The problem is there are so many rooms and it takes several sim hours to reach the whole house. Several times my sims decide to quit halfway through.

    I want to get a bonehilda. Looks like fun!

    As long as she doesn't scare the residents, Bonehilda can be a huge help. You'll have to lock her out of any baby room though. If you don't, she'll constantly wake up the baby by trying to pick the baby up. Which Bonehilda can't do. What she will do is clean the house (constantly), fix anything that breaks (which can be an issue if you're trying to work on handiness), and guzzle quick drinks if you have a juice bar. She'll even put away left overs. Which is a problem when she puts away the birthday cake before anyone gets a slice. Or when she does it before you can have the birthday boy (or girl) blow out the candles. Oh, she wont do laundry either, but she will move cloths to the hamper.

    When you open up Paint and use it to create a 3D floor plan for a house you intend to build in Sims 3, right down to assigning where furniture and light fixtures will go.

    You've been slaving away on a graduate paper for weeks and thinking that your Writer Sim would have knocked this out in a few Sim-hours.

    You know you're a TS3 addict when you think about what you're going to build on sims or what you're going to do on sims a month before you do it//You know you're a TS3 addict when you have a dream about playing it, multiple times.
  • KatNipKatNip Posts: 1,066 Member
    Oh, and one more:
    You know you're a TS3 addict when you want to put your favourite cartoon characters in the game, and you spend months looking for hearts to put on cheeks or spiky hair with a bald spot on the back and a lab coat. :lol:

    There are some houses that I sometimes pass on my way home that would totally look like they would be in the game.
