This one I had to send by post as they don't have a contact us email address...maybe because they know few people would be bothered to write/type out a letter, get a stamp from the post office and post it- not me! I'm not afraid of getting off my butt to complain about things!
Letter as follows:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I bought a bottle of your Cutex brand's 'Long Wear Top Coat' (barcode number: 5 012874 251438) recently at the Darlinghurst Priceline.
I am incredibly disappointed with this product and if I had kept the receipt ( which I'm generally not inclined to do as I buy products under the assumption they'll do at least half of what they say they will- crazy I know!) I would have returned it after the first use.
When I showered the following morning after applying your top coat at least half of the nail polish on each nail came off and continued to chip through out the day.
I have sinced applied the same coloured nail polish I had on underneath your top coatt by itself and it lasted 4 days before chipping- and it's a cheap pharmacy brand nail polish.
Even if the coloured nail polish in itself is just surprisingly good there is still no excuse for your not-so-budget-priced "long wear" top coat to not be able to survive around 12 hours or a bit of water.
I'd also like to point out, before you think about blaming your nail polish's lack of performance on the water, that due to a very small water heater I have no choice but to have short lukewarm showers.
Sincerely
I just put this in the post box and now we wait for the reply...which I don't seem to get many of :(

E-BEEF!!
Ok so i am pretty opinionated, politicised and left wing (not tree hugging feral left wing though! Personally I think they totally undermine any point they were trying to get across because all we're focusing on is their white man dread locks- eww!) Anyway I am also ,obviously due to this blog, not afraid of a bit of beef wether it be verbal, written or my favourite E BEEF!!
A facebook friend who I have since blocked liked a group/page yesterday called "Ban The Burka in Australia". I liked the group soley to start a little argument/try to educate these poor bigoted fools-
My posts/rant, which had to be made as three seperate posts, are as follows:
1. We are a secular nation, everyone has the freedom to practice whatever religion (or not as the case may be) they like. People arent stopping Christians or Jews from wearing crosses, stars of Davids or kippahs, no one is stopping Hare Krishnas from wearing what they wear or singing and dancing down the street. Shit I think its bullshit that a secular country has christmas and easter displays everywhere.
2. It is the woman's choice in the Islamic religion wether she wears the hijab or not
and while some Arab countries have atrocious ways of treating women- WE DO NOT, THAT'S WHY THEY COME TO AUSTRALIA
3. The majority of refugees from Arab nations are coming here because of the retarded war that has ruined their country and has made them fear for their lives everyday THAT WE ARE INVOLVED IN!
4. And most importantly the majority of you who are having a go at migrants and so called "illegals" are fucking anglo. Even if your great great greatgrandaddy was a convict it doesnt mean shit-
THIS LAND WAS SETTLED ILLEGALLY SO THEREFORE YOU AND I ARE ALL FUCKING "ILLEGALS"
Responses re points 1 & 2:
"some schools and hospitals have banned crosses etc, some hotels and buisinesses are removing bibles and not even putting up christmas trees. all because they might offend someone"
"freedom of religion is one thing wearing a burqa is a cultural entity not a religios one"
"i dont care where people come from when in rome do as the romans do"
^all from the same person
my response:
Ok you said SOME places are banning crosses etc. What you are saying as I understand from the nature of this page is that you want the burqa to be banned in its entirety. I understand that there would be some situations where there would be a need to provide some further proof of identity and that may entail partially removing the burqa- HOWEVER if the need arises it should be handled with respect and care. There is no need for them to be banned from wearing it completely or outside any security needs.
Fuck it if we're going to ban what people can wear why dont we also ban supre*, henleys, hurley, Ed Hardy and the like? Or is it...wait for it...peoples democratic right to wear what they want in this country even if others may not approve of their choice of clothing?
Responses re points 3 & 4 again from the same person:
"Ask yourself this who started that "retarded war that has ruined their country and made them fear for their lives every day".
Then ask yourself again why we bother to help those people who are oppressed in that country rebuild and survive. Then ask yourself, why we bother, when you show such disdain for us trying to help.
Then ask yourself why we dont throw you out when we hear you knock us for fighting for those people who will not fight for themselves.
The ask yourself where you get off and where the airport is if you dont like it"
"I grew u with a Wog name, one of my grand fathers was a Wog. I was teased for being a Skippy when i was at a school most of the kids were at were wogs. When i got to the next school i was picked on for being a Wog, when the majority of kids were Aussies. So get off you high horse your Generalisation of a mjority is inaccurate"
My response:
One persons freedom fighter is another persons terrorist.
They didnt ask us to go in there and fuck up their country and kill their people... sorry make that "collateral damage" nor was it their idea to make the food packages and scatter bombs dropped by the US look practically the same (one was a yellow cylindrical container, the other the same yellow but square- same size) so that people who were going for what they thought was relief got killed. They didnt ask the Americans to shoot at their people and laugh about it as if they were playing cod.
We went in the with out EX-prime minister's dick up the American's EX-presidents arse (note they are both now "ex") on some bullshit about wmd's so that America could aquire their oil and flex a bit of muscle.
BTW I love Australia, I am a proud Australian, however I find it very difficult to say that when you bigots make us look like a bunch of ignorant racist pricks. You people are the reason we get ashamed of our country.
also as if the majority of racists in Australia arent Anglo?! Who are the ones you see on Australia day wrapped in flags talking shit to anyone who looks different? Who were the ones who started the disgusting display of nationalism that was broadcast around the world and made us look like fools - the cronulla riots? Huh?
The only people who truly are "real" Australians are the ones who appreciate every part of it.
and re my last post no one actually mentioned anything about what i wrote- the fact that we were settled illegally just more "blah blah blah racist blah ignorant blah"
I have to mention that there was a girl from Canada who also posted some very enlightened responses backing up what I said - love the fact that shes not even from Australia and she still chips in her 2c- however i didnt want to make this much longer than it already is.
