You know you Sim a lot when...

You know you sim a lot when you're always on the lookout for quirky and unique venue names when driving around. 

@simgirl1010

That is so true🙌! Like the equivalent of Planet Honey Pop 🙂!

That is a great way to find names for lots  @simgirl1010 🙂 It is sometimes hard to know what to name lots, and real life venue or home names can help.

Yay @rosemow 🙂! We need IRL places to have weird names so we can make our Sim builds stand out with a fun name😎!

I do that with house designs too! @simsplayer818 🙂 If I see a home on tv or are reading a magazine, I sometimes think about how that home would look in the Sims.

Ohh... If I use the lot only for myself, and save it to library only, not gallery.. I often just name it "dfghjklkuytre"  or "qqwertyuioppp" 

namely what ever gibberish I happen to type 😳

@simsplayer818and @rosemow I do that when I watch home design shows, too 😎!

I'm so glad you're enjoying the threads I started @simsplayer818 😎!

@EllupelluelluI label that way too when I'm just saving something for my game 🙌!

When you are grocery shopping and search the aisle for the ice cream that will help you lose weight fast. 

I also don’t really add a proper name first to my creations when saving to my library @Ellupelluellu 🙂 If I was going to upload it to the gallery, I would change it then, 

It is great that in sims there is an icecream that helps them to lose weight quicker! @Bluegayle 🙂 There would be some people who would like it in real life also! 

Haha...I try to turn the camera on TV or online when I'm watching something @DaniRose2143 and @rosemow 🙌!

@DaniRose2143I don't count tiles, but I do wonder if the lot would be a 40X30 or a 30X20, etc.😎!

I just thought of a good one...

🐌 You know you Sim a lot when your real plants (or what used to be plants but have now taken on a life of their own) in your real back yard could desperately use some tidying up but instead you are spending over a week testing fertiliser in the Sims on pixelated plants. After a week of comparing plant, fish, dog and horse fertiliser and declaring horse/dog products the joint winner you feel a real sense of achievement and share your findings with fellow gardening Simmers.🦋

Meanwhile the pots and planters in your real life back yard look disgraceful and half of them go in the bin (as long as you can lift them and they don't fight back)... then you buy a lot of plastic plants instead!🥀

@rosemowand @Ellupelluellu It's funny that you don't name your items how you want them when it's time to upload them, too!  I mentioned a few posts ago that I do that too! 🙌 Imagine if we uploaded something weird or "Plum" worthy to the gallery! 🙌

We need to care for our real life plants as well as our sims care for the plants that they grow themselves in the game!  @simsplayer818 🙂 

@Bluegayle Whoever finally invents that is going to be the richest person on earth. If they make it into ice cream on a stick I'll build a statue of them out of the sticks when I'm done too.🥰

@coolsim9999999 @rosemow The worst part of the camera thing for me is it usually takes about 10 seconds of me getting increasingly frustrated with my mouse before I realize my mistake.😆

@Bluegayleand @DaniRose2143 I wish they had that kind of ice cream. For now, it's called "Plain Fat-free Yogurt"...🙌

@DaniRose2143LOL me too --- especially if I'm watching Sims online and I think I'm playing my game for a minute 🙌! This is my favorite smiley on this site 🙌!

@simsplayer818I don't have real life plants for that reason.  I'm not as bad as my husband, though, because he killed a cactus!🙌!  However, in game, I always keep on top of the plants and have expert level 10 gardeners in my main household😎! If a plant ever asks to be fed: RUN😮!

I can't remember if I said hi to you yet @Bluegayle but it's nice to meet you if I didn't 😎!
