the only real way of stopping the virus mutating the disease so the person dies within hours of contracting the virus. Its cruel but so to is living with the disease and spreading it.
i believe The Walking Dead show deals with this disease well. or in fact any disease.

People who don't eat seafood.
i cant eat crustaceans

My life would not be the same without seafood.
true. take anything our of your life, and it wouldnt be the same cause it wouldn't be there anymore.

I don't understand if this is serious or not



Now I know where to hang out in car parks for a perv.
by virtue of your post it actually hinders and endangers women IF the point of this is for their safety.

i recall in another thread discussing men who overtly protect women online with posts, tweets or instagram hashtags, threats to fight on their behalf, are not actually helping.... believe it was a premise espoused by MEB_

this thingo, pink car parks, i believe wont help. IF, and it's a big IF, the premise is for womens safety and protection then there is some merit. However, if it's to limit distance between car and shops for women so as to place less strain on their muscles and body then that is well poor and implies women cant carry goods for lengthier distances.

it is open to abuse. men will simply drive with a female, then swap seats before reaching the park, allowing female to park and satisfy criteria. the male can then stride in knowing he upon returning will see the car quickly.

No they won't. Its not a law like disabled parking. Its a suggestion. Anyone can park there.

in that it is similar or the same to parents with prams spots. i for one wont park in them out of courtesy for those who have prams et al. however, seen plenty of people who do. furrowed brow awaits them

What a joke - here is a thought - how about you just install more lighting and cctv in the entire car park and clean out the riff Raff from your stairwells for the betterment of everyone - you ******* charge enough

The new Arnott's TV commercials with Roy Billings doing the voiceovers.

'Our chocolate biscuits are made with real chocolate. Our Scotch Fingers are made with real butter.'

Errr, what the **** else do you make biscuits out of?

People going crazy because the Avalanches are touring, didn't they have one album that had a couple of decent songs and that's it? Or is this one of those cases of a band getting better over time because they remind a lot of mid thirties of their youth?

And how good would a live show of their's be anyway, aren't their albums just a whole lot of samples? Would be incredibly difficult to reproduce well live I'd imagine.

I enjoy their music, but electronic acts simply do not work live. I saw The Presets once at a festival and after 2 songs of one guy standing still singing and the other guy pressing buttons...yeah, was shit. Of course, this is why ecstasy is so popular...

Im the complete opposite man, at least it actually sounds good. I've seen Rock headliners which are crap live compared to their tracks.

I never understood why they were so popular in the first place, one of the most overrated Australian bands of all time.

Yeah, but it's at least live, not just popping your album in and spinning it for the crowd
