Same thing happened to me. I think I've got tonsillitis or at least a throat infection.

Ah.
How nostalgic.
Honestly, compared to my first semester finals, the HSC was a breeze.
Not even a breeze, more like a draft.

Throat and chest infection here :([/QUOTE]
During my exams I had a muscle problem, near my lung, so I went to every exam not being able to breathe properly.
It's not a competition, ladies. We understand; you're both sick. No need to compete over who's sicker :v:

This fucking advert has been coming on every 15 minutes tonight. It's fucking pissing me off.
I decided to check their site out see if there's any legitimacy to their claims (I think we can all tell right off the bat there's not) because, if what they're saying is false, is there not some kind of broadcast quality control organisation that you can contact to get false advertising removed (I know back in the UK they were [b]really[/b] strict about what could and couldn't be advertised. If it was false, you basically weren't allowed to).
Here's a video explaining how it supposedly works:

I don't even know where to begin explaining how fucking RETARDED and downright incorrect that is. Stretching causes cell division leading to a larger penis? Pfft, right! More like 'scar tissue causes your penis to get several mm longer', but is it worth the risk?

The AANA (Australian Association of National Advertisers) are the industry watchdogs in that area. There are so many advertisements, and not all of them are checked.
"The Commercial Television Code of Practice covers matters prescribed in section 123 of the Broadcasting Services Act and other matters relating to program content that are of concern to the community including:
· Program classifications;
· Accuracy, fairness and respect for privacy in news and current affairs;
· Advertising time on television;
· Placement of commercials and programs promotions; and
· Complaints handling"
We're pretty lenient on what's shown, it's all in the time frame.
Just so you know.
ps; here's the timezone sheet, if you want to avoid being stuck watching phone sex lines advertisements with your grandma/parents.

By the way, Desira's dad's advertisement got shortlisted for Cannes.

hahah good luck, most agencies (including Clemenger BBDO, dammit) have a strict no-smoking policy. I guess it's all about the image; it is advertising.

Some fucking ad for a non-profit organisation. I couldn't find it on Badjar Ogilvy's website or on Google, so it must not have been very effective. It's not all about winning awards, and agencies like Ogilvy tend to forget that.
Oh, and he works for Badjar Ogilvy. It's tiny. It's not even Ogilvy Mather.

more pseudoephedrine!
Bloody annoying how they keep regulating the hell of out useful drugs which otherwise require $30 to a doctor, which is totally unnecessary.
First pseudoephedrine, now codeine. Probably should stock up on Rikodeine, nothing works better for suppressing coughs.

Is it true that in New Zealand they are taught to indicate left when they reach a roundabout, followed by indicating whatever direction they intend to go?
I'm installing Starcraft II at the moment.
I literally have the best boyfriend ever :3:
[QUOTE=Faren;30579559]Is it true that in New Zealand they are taught to indicate left when they reach a roundabout, followed by indicating whatever direction they intend to go?[/QUOTE]
close
international standards require you to indicate left (or right if they drive on the right side of the road) before exiting the roundabout. so, you're going to the right, which is the third exit on a four direction roundabout:
you put your right indicator on, and when you go past the second exit, you flip your left indicator on.
every state requires this by law except victoria
[editline]20th June 2011[/editline]

6. You must indicate a left turn just before your exit unless it is not practical to do so.

What's different in Victoria? You just don't have to indicate left before you exit?
