    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    You do realise, of course, that you'll be able to play tennis and go swimming etc if you get yourself some?

    The adverts I like to see at t time is the austitagia (sp) ad's. Ya sitting there tucking into a great big porterhouse steak and a fucking ad comes on telling you how to treat the worms and shit that may have infected the very beast you are trying to consume.
    Kinda like cold water on a hard on. puts ya right off the idea.

    Ostertagia... I only know that because I work in the rural sector.

    So, you do have a need to know about sanitary pads and tampons, then. Just the timing isn't good, eh.

    I saw an ad tonight for male sanitary pads - Not "Depends" these were real MAN PADS Now you buggers have to suffer your own genitals down sides being displayed all over the tele. FFS whatever happened to the tap and shake I remember dad talking about? Clearly todays man doesn't feel the need...he just pops another pad in

    STILL not as cringe worthy as all the tampon/girly pad ads but they show these things off visually really well. Good 360 shots of the shaping and those little super effective leak guards and channels etc etc...

    I had to do a marketing paper for my IT degree (don't ask me why). The lecturer said we always absorbed the ads, I said I don't, she disagreed, and said its subliminal. I didn't argue too hard, I had to get a grade from her at the end, but hello, I really do turn off during the ads, and when one comes on, I can't tell you what the last one was.

    Even the ones I enjoy, I take ages to figure out what they are selling. Classic was the fisherman's catch ad. Loved the cute chick in the red jumper suit slapping the guy with a fish, and his reaction.

    Took a couple of weeks to learn what fisherman's catch was, and still got it wrong until one was offered to me.

    Don't worry, those advertisers are in cuckoo land.

    Pah. Proper "man pads" are plastic ziplock bags with a dry sponge inside.

    I joined the Bowls club over the back fence to take advantage of the $6 jugs.
