What is the figurative language for you have a sever mall habit?

The phrase "you have a severe mall habit" is not a figurative language statement. It's a literal statement, meaning the person frequently goes to the mall, possibly to an unhealthy extent.

To turn this into figurative language, we could use metaphors, similes, or hyperbole:

Metaphor:

* "You're a mall rat." This compares the person to a rat, which is associated with scavenging and being drawn to certain places.

* "The mall is your addiction." This uses addiction as a metaphor for the person's strong desire to go to the mall.

Simile:

* "You're as drawn to the mall as a moth to a flame." This compares the person's attraction to the mall to a moth's attraction to light.

Hyperbole:

* "You live at the mall." This exaggerates the amount of time the person spends at the mall.

* "You're a mall zombie, just wandering the aisles aimlessly." This exaggerates the person's behavior at the mall, comparing them to a mindless zombie.

These examples are just a few possibilities. The best figurative language to use will depend on the context and the desired effect.
