1.) When you're on the phone with a friend, you tend to repeat the last thing your friend said, followed by your name.2.) When you're about to leave a parking spot, you fumble for Shift+P.3.) After you enter a parking spot, you fumble for F12 to see how good you did4.) When you're about to merge with highway traffic, you reach for your stick and instinctively go "full throttle" into "P", destroying your transmission.5.) When you've arrived at home, you kick off the "reverse thrusters", which ironically seems to work in an automatic-transmission car, since it switches you to a lower gear.6.) When you're stuck in traffic, you wish so hard for a real-life "Slew Mode" so you can easily bust past everyone at a ludicrous speed.7.) You feel dejected when you find all you need to do to turn on your car is insert the key and turn the ignition.8.) You are in a real-life airport, and you are amazed at how "realistic" it looks.9.) You are in a real-life airliner and the passenger in the neighboring seat looks at you funny after you tell him you're not used to feeling the G's when the aircraft takes off and descends.10.) When you're in an airliner and you just have to take notes on exactly how the pilots operate so you can best emulate their procedures when you get home.

11.) When you dock your boat you only have a localiser, no glidesloap. You also can't be on center or you'll hit the dock.12.) Going over a bridge in town is like taking off.JimCYWG

Okay, These are great. Also remember not to pull back on your shifter when you need to reduce speed in traffic.Or when you need to steer around the grocery store parking lot, you apply alternating pressure to your brake and gas pedals with both feet and forget they are not your rudder pedals.

looking for the zoom funtion so I can see far away objects

When on an airliner, you look out the window and think to yourself, "The frame rates are really great up here."Done that for real.

When driving by an airport, you point out to your passenger that that 737 is on ILS 27 approach, flaps 30, approaching at 144 knots...but he's a bit high and you've done better.

When you answer the phone with your name and add "with Tango".

This is more of a you know you've been coding a simulator too much when, but I don't care, when you look at your computer and think "Hmm I wonder how I could implement HDR that would work in OpenGL on both AMD and Nvidia, while running on both Linux and Windows". (I am guilty of this one recently)On to the you know you've been flying too much flight simulator.1. When you are supposed to be pulling out of the driveway, but you are still waiting on clearance to taxi.2. When you hear the term Falcon and you immediately think of your favorite F-16 simulator.3. When you hear someone say "explain" and you thought they said "X-Plane".4. When you hear someone talking about meatballs and you can't get your mind off the aircraft carrier landing system.

A. You check to see that your "controls" are free and clear before moving.B. You hear "Traffic traffic" and immediately start scanning the area for traffic before realizing somebody's calling you on your cell phone.C. A warning/caution bell goes off, and you immediately check your gauges before realizing somebody's calling you on your cell phone.

This is funny stuff!"You feel dejected when you find all you need to do to turn on your car is insert the key and turn the ignition.""you enjoy landings where the speed of the crosswinds is higher than your age in years" :(

...You've attempted to use the hat switch to pan around while viewing the screenshots forum...You find yourself reaching around your joystick to type when posting on your favorite FS forum

.....You try pulling back on the steering wheel of your car in order to fly OVER the heavy traffic you're coming up on. Tried that one, hee, hee.

You refer to anything slower than 25 miles as taxi speed. :(

You mutter "V1, Rotate" to yourself as you merge on the freeway.
