Sam: We all know how it hurts. Seriously Tekong. We were lured into eating heaty stuff. :(

CI: I was trying to be serious. Wait till you enter. Culture shock.

TRM: I omitted them oops. But oh well, I hardly care for tiny details.

Yitza: No shit. Unfortunately the government here is smart. I shall leave it at that, you can guess at what they do.

Kippei: 7 ICT to go for me, already completed 3 high-key lol. And I only stop my gym workouts for a month before IPPT, because the only thing I need to train for, just to pass or get silver, is 2.4km. I get 5 points for everything else just by breathing. Oops.

Gordon: Ooo. Good luck with your ICT. Cheong suah type?

Conscription is hugely unpopular here in Australia, and it only ever introduced when a major war breaks out. Introducting it can often get the government voted out of office.

We haven’t had conscription since 1973, not even mandatory training.
