I could probably do 4 for sure and mostly 5. Depends on their #5 as I don't know all the rules yet.

I can stab 1 and 4, but even 3 is beyond me: without corrective lenses, I'm too nearsighted to safely cross the street. as to 5, I just can't get to know a dog, then eat him. and I can't hold my temper when some schmuck cuts in line. Or grow a combover.

I speak English like a native. "Me ooga booga, me eatum". I don't smoke, but don't know if I would call my chocolate passion an addiction to drugs, or my coffee habit. Booze I can take it or drink it. Sometimes leave it. So I guess I fail this one. I need glasses, and I have spine damage that makes me 5% disabled, so I am out. I am over seventy in Dog years, but in human years I am within the realm of acceptable. Laws, maybe, customs, nope. Can't bring myself to stand in my own effluent, spit at the dinner table and speak with my mouth full.
Wassat, 2 out of five. Maybe one. Depending.

hey, sign me up...I can meet all 5 (of course, if they ask for references from you 'blokes' I am out the door...)! I tend to sleep a lot...is that a handicap or an addiction?

In your case, that's a big "PLUS"

In my opinion 2 and 5 contradict each other.How can one obey Chinese law and customs without "mal-habits"...espescially alcohol.

Simple: lie on the test. A 5,000 year tradition.

Applicants must be no elder than 70 years old; 5. Applicants must obey to Chinese law and customs 1. Well, that's pretty easy, so long as you count the dialect of the People's Democratic Eighth World Republic of Nova Scotia as "English." 2. Yeah, Lei is right. I don't go to malls all that often. ;D 3. Yes, praise be to God (and my work outs.) 4. Good until 2047 on that one. 5. Law yes, customs no. D'oh! They got me. Laws I'll abide by (even if I disagree) but there are certain customs in any society that I'm not going to live by.
