An internet petition? How effective.

I can't wait for people to sign it talking about how they want to kill the that Michael Atkinson fellow. Good work guys, that'll show him how we aren't violent psychopaths!

But whatever, I'll sign it.

 

[Cherry Cola]

Yeah, grow up Australia! Because you have a couple of politicians going against 18+ ratings your entire nation needs to grow up!

 

[Souplex]

Don't you people get it; Australia suffers so other countries have an example of what not to do. If Australia cleans up their act there will be nothing scaring other countries away from stupidity.

They could just threaten to release their spiders into the stupid countries.

I can't understand how every Australian I meet is laid back and leftie yet their government is one of the most oppressive democratically elected governments in the world.

I'll sign though.

We have two major political parties & the electoral system is set up in such a way that it is very difficult for other parties to come into power.
BOTH PARTIES ARE EXACTLY THE FUCKING SAME.

It's an advertising slogan, not an attack on our nation.

It's an advertising slogan that doesn't make much sense.

 

[JRCB]

I signed it. Might not do anything, but worth a shot.

Do you have a better suggestion?
Email Electronics Boutique, I'm sure they'd love to hear it.

Grow up people who haven't grown up in Australia.

That's fucking ingenius man!

What's actually really funny is the fact that the only thing that's stopping the R18+ is the law that says that the rating system can only be changed when ALL of the attorney generals say yes, and all of them are, except for one (who I don't need to say, you probably know who he is) who is clogging up the works.

Were a funny country like that. Maybe if we weren't so laid back we would have a decent government.

Hey, same in Ireland! Despite the fact that Fine Gael and Fianna Fail fought on opposite sides of a bloody civil war that killed thousands and with multiple atrocities by each side to the other, they're virtually indistinguishable!

This is why we need a revolution.

In Sweden, if your party gets 4% votes or more you join the parliament of Sweden. So while the pirate party didn't win, guess who is in the parliament?

We rule!

I'm waiting....

For what? Emailing them? Fuck that, I'm too lazy.

 

[Cabisco]

I could sign it, but i'm too busy living in my own little increasingly totalitarian society, you might have heard of it. It's called England.

 

[Cherry Cola]

For what? Emailing them? Fuck that, I'm too lazy.

a) Then don't complain about the fucking slogan &
b) I'm waiting for a better suggestion for a slogan from you.

Why the hell would I not be allowed to complain about something if I can't improve it? So I can't complain about games? I can't complain about politics? I can't complain about anything unless I can make something better?

I'm so sorry, just my patriotic side shining through.

You make a good point.
Forget everything I said except the good bits.

Fine

*forgets you exist*

Who the hell are you? *looks at our conversation*

Oh, very well, I shall forget

*forgets about you*

Who the hell are you?

I find the the title a little offensive against Australians, it's not like if the whole country is like Michael Atkinson.

And they're everywhere. When I was younger, my brother caught a scorpion from across the road to have as a pet. He was 14.
