you know you've been in china far too long when... part III


  • You no longer wait in line, but go immediately to the head of the queue.
  • You accept the fact that you have to queue to get a number for the next queue.
  • You find it perfectly normal to order for everyone at a restaurant without asking them.
  • Lighting up a cigarette in the middle of a meal, holding the cigarette in the middle of the table, and blowing smoke in everyones face while they're eating...
    AND continue eating while smoking your cigarette is "chic”.
  • You ACTUALLY believe that there is no possible way you can be wrong.
  • When asked your reasons you just repeat "Sorry" (buhaoyisi).
  • You chew on "Ducks blood" like a fatty piece of beef.
  • You are not surprised when three men with a ladder show up to change a light bulb.
  • You blow your nose or spit on the restaurant floor (of course after making a loud hocking noise) .
  • You throw your trash out the window of your house, your car or bus.
  • You start to watch CCTV9 and feel warm and comforted by the governments great work.
  • You burp in any situation and don't care.
  • In a meeting you say everything will be 'wonderful' and give no details.
  • You find that it saves time to stand and retrieve your hand luggage while the plane is on final approach.
  • When you insist on paying the bill and fumble with your purse or wallet so long that the other person pays anyway.
  • You have no reservations about spitting sun flower seeds on the restaurant floor.
  • You giggle like a giddy little school girl at the mere allusion to the word "sex".
  • You forget what salt tastes like.
  • You understand all the above listed references.
