You know, that almost makes you sound like a rapper. I am writing this merely to mock you, knowing the people reading it will appreciate the tongue in cheek as I illustrate the 'fair shake of the sauce bottle' you're dishing out to smokers. I'm aware you're about as detached from reality as a politician can get, but I do know the 12 year old korean sweat shop workers you have in your off shore PR department will read this and hopefully also get a chuckle at your expense.
Smoking, filthy habit, right? Some say it's as hard as heroin to kick. In Australia, the land of the 'surprise tax' as I like to call it (we're already one of the most taxed nations yet we have 'stamp duty' tax on … everything, which is usually 10% (see: bankrupting on your first home or car purchase by surprise tax) as well as road tax, breathing tax, you fucking name it tax) but now we have taxes on taxes. Cigarettes were always taxed at a premium, where a pack of fags would set you back $7 in the 80's and early 90's as opposed to $1-2 outside Australia.
Smokers clog up the healthcare system, right? What with their dying all the time and stuff, why not tax them? ファイン。 Smokers pay a lot more tax than any other Australian, with almost 90% of the price of them being 'tax' all going to the medical system. But fuck giving them organs, they're smokers. Hell, let's tax them more. Now we're nearing $1 per cigarette, and what happens? The price of 'quit smoking aids' which always work out to cost more than cigarettes go up too.
As much as governments pretend to want us to not smoke they realise that the tax they can milk out of us by keeping us alive an average 10 years more is far less than what they can by taxing our addiction. I say this as an intermittant lifelong smoker, who quits as often as he restarts, but fairs fair this new tax has gone way too far.
Heroin addicts get shooting galleries, social support, free housing, $380 a fortnight and FREE methadone to inject instead. Smokers get mortgages, bills, two point seven five children, two cars, and a fuckload of surprise tax on top of their taxed taxes of cigartaxes and placebo 'quit' substitutes that freely state in their instructions that they won't give you the 'fix' or 'buzz' of cigarettes (and thus never last more than a week in a smokers addiction).
So, I propose this K-rudd, rather than making heroin far more appealing to Australian's, how about you cut back on the smoking tax, or even it out across the three big killers, obesity (being the biggest killer in this nation) and alcohol (and see how long it takes until parliament house is burnt down and you'r nailed to the flag pole given how crazed Aussies seem to be about drinking (coming from a non drinker here)), which I might add are two elements I do not participate in. Maybe we should have photos of the mega-litres of fat sucked out of womens arses and thighs and the horrible chaffed cellulite gone necrotic fat people get attached to every edible product? Why stop there, why don't we up the gore level and throw up some awesome pics from ogrish of splatter deaths from drunken road kills of people?
Or better yet, maybe repeal the tax and stop being a cunt, eh?

Ps: Why the fuck did I vote for him? I guess he was Obama before Obama, he looked good because the competition was horrendous, and promised the right things, then backflipped on all of them.
The SciFiTv channel in Australia has been airing a lot of crappy infomercial-disguised-as-edgy-hipster-shows of late, the most recent shows the advertising heavyweight of the 'zombie' genre mixed with allusions to viral marketing. First, here's what wiki has to say:
“Woke Up Dead is an American horror/comedy web series starring Jon Heder (best known for Napoleon Dynamite) as a young man who awakes in a full bathtub after 'drowning' and has no heartbeat, prompting his friends to believe him to be a zombie.
The show premiered on Sony Pictures Entertainment owned Crackle on October 5, 2009. Woke Up Dead is a production of Electric Farm Entertainment, a company that produced Afterworld, which currently runs on Crackle, along with Gemini Division and Valemont.
The show is executive produced by Brent V. Friedman, Stan Rogow, and Jeff Sagansky. Heder's co-stars are Krysten Ritter, Josh Gad, and Wayne Knight. New episodes streamed weekdays through the end of October 2009.
The first episode was included on the Zombieland DVD. A season one DVD is in production. It is currently unknown if there will be a second season.”
Those familiar with Afterworld will remember it was a good concept wrecked by bad production and so intermittant you'd never follow the plot, not to mention unless you were in the US you couldn't view episodes online.
Gemini Devision went one step further into the bowels of Internet fail by portraying it's narrative as the vlog of some silly bitch on some urgent super mission being leaked. It was PACKED with promotional advertising which left you boggling at how they squeezed ten seconds of trashy hack narrative into four minutes of epilepsy inducing sub and paraliminal marketing gaffes.
So to does this next 'feature' from Electronic Farm disappoint. With blatent advertising segues in dialogue disengaging the viewer it forcibly pimps Kodal, Jeep, Ford, Doritos and Motorola. Many items are changed to have their logo physically in view, where logos aren't found on the items in the real world.
Electric Farm breeds a lot of cows, because they sure as fuck shovel out more bullshit than any other 'production company' at present. Maybe film makers will take note of it's limited success even with horrible advertising, or that of Dead Set (a zombie serial aired on BBC) and bring us a REAL zombie series?
"我々は私たちの周りのオブジェクトの顕微鏡の詳細、私たちに知っている。 And yet we know relatively little about how our society works and how it reacts to changes brought upon it.” The start up cost will be somewhere around $1.5 billion and it's so far wholly funded by the European Union, which shows it is taking the project and its possibilities very, very seriously.
I've been linked by a few people to some pics floating about of a Big Brother suit that some prop guy made, but recently came across this little wonder, also made by the same guy and included in the photo shoots of the Big Brother suit with his girlfriend playing the Little Sister weilding this: -
The creator, Harrison Krix, is a 'graphic designer' yet seems to be making a tidy profit doing commission work producing props. Including a bloody awesome Daft Punk helmet amongst other things.

It was a massive hit for Lady Gaga and Beyonce, but apparently Britney Spears had first dibs on recording Telephone – and it was Lady Gaga herself that offered it to her. Website iLeaks last week released a snippet of what it claimed was Spears' version of the song which became Lady Gaga's sixth consecutive No 1 hit on Billboard's Pop Songs list.
Fans of both have been teased with rumours that Lady Gaga originally wrote the song for Spears's album Circus , but the story has never progressed any further than hearsay. iLeaks claimed Spears sang a demo of Telephone and it then sold the complete version of the demo to a fan for $US750.
The full version appeared on the internet within days.
News first surfaced that Spears had been offered the song in March last year, when Lady Gaga producer Rodney Darkchild moaned about the fact Telephone never made it onto Circus. “Me and Lady Gaga wrote a smash for Britney called 'Telephone' the label didnt out it on the LP (Circus). It should be out right now!!! Its too hot!!!” Darkchild reportedly tweeted. Now debate's raging among fans of both sides as to whether it's really Spears, World of Britney claims the original has no autotuning, unlike the leaked version, which is heavily autotuned.
