Ugly were needed in the ad. About Australian humour I would say that often it is not very subtle but sometimes very funny. I liked the comment "well done - NEVER".

The proponent managed to interest a cigarette company in Vietnam, but I don't know where it went from there or what the relative health outcomes were.<br /><br />I take your point about wearing the outcome, but the man's issue is related to wearing the product. Also, the average age is rising, but more importantly, so is life expectancy, even after deducting the improvements to the still horrific under-5 mortality figures. The cigarette solution looks like it was only of interim value.<br /><br />Cheers 2t<br /><br />2 tannersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-91661082834688111432016-01-15T05:31:23.229+11:002016-01-15T05:31:23.229+11:00Just spent a very enjoyable (and instructive!) cou...Just spent a very enjoyable (and instructive!) couple of hours back-reading Unknown's blog to the start. Thorough recommend for anyone interested in Timor Leste!<br /><br />Would be very interested if any outcome from the 'Bleg post' dated 24 March 2009? (And personally I can't see why provision of condoms is considered a male-related issue anyway; it's the women who wear the outcome, as it were...)<br /><br />kvdAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-74482931151377686722016-01-15T02:53:40.231+11:002016-01-15T02:53:40.231+11:00I am a vegetarian but found the ad over the top as...I am a vegetarian but found the ad over the top as it were.Rummuserhttp://www.rummuser.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-67557405643520820032016-01-14T19:54:41.043+11:002016-01-14T19:54:41.043+11:00mmm.

I'm not sure I see the issue unless it's one of those "freedom of speech for me, but not for you". I snickered a lot during that add. And Lee Lin Chin's take on Dr Evil was hilarious.<br /><br />I swear, some people obviously need a sense of humour transplant.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01568120308989495459noreply@blogger.com
