Oh, and guilty of numbers 1, 2, 4 and 6.

And all of admin's, except for the vomiting/urinating/expectorating in public.

And you also know you've been here too long when you can carry on a 10-min conversation with a Beijing taxi driver almost entirely in grunts.

Yeah, I guess it was mainly #7... I can't imagine many "foreign" gals bringing a Chinese guy home for the night--ok, so that happens--but what I really can't see is random Chinese guy then getting up and cleaning the place by the time Lovely Foreign Flower has awoken. How many Chinese men do YOU know that would clean an apartment for themselves, let alone for someone else? Forget apartment... Most guys (read Chinese guys) in my office can barely keep the areas around their desks from being environmental disaster areas. We're doing well in my office if the guys stack the junk on their desks once a year when the bosses come around to inspect for "clean office competition". I can't imagine what their homes must be like. Oh wait. They're all married and therefore have "live-in cleaning services".

Oh, and I still don't know many/any girls that would "think nothing of urinating in public". Even here, that's still going to be a guy-only one, though that was from admin, not from the article. Smile
