You know you're an SL addict when:

[Bobtron Brunswick]

You look at SLT and it feels more like your time than your real timezone.

[angeoco]

You try to cam into a photo in your regular news website (yes it has happened!)

[ChinRey]

You try to resize the sofa in your living room.

[Cindy Evanier]

You shout TUNE in the supermarket in front of your embarrassed kids (occasionally also raising your hands)

[Ceka Cianci]

When you are in the U.S. and start calculating the imperial system, because of the metric taking over in your use..

ETA: It's been awhile since I was addicted, so this may not still apply to today..hehehe

when you look at a building or thing in RL and wonder how many prims it may have, and where to get the textures...

 

Oh and when you're still IC when going out (which happened to me in Spring '09 when I played Gor on an Alt): I logged off from my role as Scribe on Gor, made me ready, and went to the cafe around the corner for breakfast.

And I ordered "One BlackWine, please"! The waitress looked at me, smirked and simply replied "First or second slave?" - which made me realize where and when I was, and I wished i was back home alone, or underneath a rock or something. We chatted later, and I learned that she rp'ed Gor as a kajira long long time ago, on a chat platform somewhere on the webs

[Zsigmond Alcott]

When you try to click on people in RL to read their profile.

All the time! lol 

[Tamara Artis]

1. When you go online in the morning and check SL email first, then rl  
2. when you see a nice sunset photo somewhere and think how would you create a windlight like this in sl
3. when you have "nothing to wear" day in real life and, instead of thinking what to try from your real life closet, you combine sl outfits and stuff
4. when you see a word "linden" in real life and start to laugh randomly
5. when you turn around if someone in real life calls out your sl name

Enough for now lol

[Carolyn Zapedzki]

When you walk in a bar and look for the sploder.

You look in the mirror and see you've put weight on, and then realise your shape is no modify, so have to do it the hard way.

[Amanda Crisp]

When you run into a Stranger who seems to know more about you than they should, and you wonder whose Alt they are.
 

[Ceka Cianci]

When you start to think sleep is over rated.

More than once, and youtube too. The annoying part is when you have to stop and think "huh, it's not moving"

[Zoidyn Kytori]

When you tear your closet apart looking for that awesome outfit you just wore 2 weeks ago ... and realize it's in SL.

When you're invited to an event and you ask for an LM.

[Chaser Zaks]

When you think you can just edit how something works.

 

I woke up because of doorbell and before I got out of bed I was thinking of disabling the script in the doorbell.

can totally relate to that where i come from there are quite a few Linden associations ranging from big developments of Linden Homes to blocks of flats and health care centres baring the "Linden" name shortly before last names got replaced by usernames i did notice some of the last names were of RL places in the area where i'm from with a Linden connection 

[Chase01]

When I see stumble onto a product in RL either from a blog, store or an article and I can associate it with something I've seen in world. I used to keep a folder with pictures of product references for fun. Unfortunately most were lost on my old HD when it crashed. Here's two as an example. The first is the is a picture that inspired a skybox made Convair. That was an older release. The second is a desk made by Hideki for TCF sometime in 2014.

Btw Hesten translate to "the horse" in Danish 

[Aislin Ceawlin]

My RL best friend, SL sister(s) (her alts, lol) lives in Dallas, I live in our home state, Michigan. We've both brought up teleporting while on the phone.

[LittleMe Jewell]

I think it is time for a revival of this short video.

Absolute classic!!!!

[BilliJo Aldrin]

You see a rl building that's partially settled into the ground and think they did a poor job of lining up the prims

You look out into the distance in rl and think that seamless background texture is amazing.

You look at a rl  building and wonder how many prims it took to build it.

You walk thru an empty warehouse where u work in rl and wonder why the music stream is down, and where the dj booth and group inviter is.

Yes, i like to build in SL *smiles*

[Talligurl]

When you see a cute dress, and you wonder if it's available in SL.

[earthgirlkelli]

You prefer spending time in your SL house over spending time in your RL house (I know my SL home is way nicer than my RL home).
