You almost say "sul sul!" instead of hello

JoAnne65

You jump up and down watching Michael Moore's 'Where to invade next', shouting: "That's from Sims 3! That tune, that's from Sims 3!"

If you literally compare everything to the sims.
"You're too long in the shower."
"In the sims, my sims shower a whole hour."

... you find yourself wanting to open a real-life person in stylist because the colour of their hat clashes with their coat.

You waste all kinds of time searching for some leftovers that you know must be in your refrigerator someplace, only to finally remember that they would be in your sims' fridge.

MamaSimTee

You are in a home goods store thinking "Don't I have that lamp?" and it turns out you do, in your SIMS game. LOL

To add: when you're in a restaurant and CANNOT stop staring at a young woman who looks exactly like Angela Pleasant, ski nose and all.

...when you wake up in the morning thinking about what you plan to do for the day and realize it is all what you plan for your sims.

When you spend every last dime on a lotto ticket, thinking you'll win 10k to a million dollars any day now... Sims do it all the time.

... you want to expand your front room with the hand tool by a couple of squares for extra space and then CASt everything to change the look, feel, and atmosphere.
