...which means you have, from the time of this OP-making, 17 days to vote for the 2013 Hottest 100 and 23 days to wait to spend all day listening to it and then complaining about the number one song.

Unless it's Thrift Shop, which it won't be, because that was last year, and since my arrival in Australia it has been the only #1 song in the Hottest 100 not to lead to pissing and moaning from at least SOME of the listeners.
(Looking at you, Big Jet Plane.)
So, Australians near and far - do you care about the Hottest 100? Or are you like me and just listen to the music on Nova while ignoring the vapid shit their radio hosts spout? Or do you really just enjoy Australia Day for the public holiday that it is?
ROLL CALL
And, introducing the 2013 Honorary Australian of the Year, which is a title of absolutely no value and chosen only by me:
@Wimble
AGAIN. But only because @lonelyahava is a Kiwi and that's a disqualification for this completely pointless award.
