Censorship? What's that? Only in subtitles...

Free, public television in Australia is uncensored, except when bad language is subtitled. As far as I can tell, profanity, nudity, and anything else is completely acceptable when you're flipping through the main channels that show the news and kids' shows and what not. The radio is also uncensored. Something that's a little different. Anyway, got more slang. Learning new ones everyday!

Drug store - Chemist

Mom - Mum

Liquor store - Bottle shop

Candy - Lollies

Scotch tape - Sticky tape

Sharpie - Nico

Counter - Bench

Antique shop - Salvo

College - Uni (or University)

Kindergarten - Kindie

They also have "late night shopping" every Thursday. Typically, most stores close at about 5 everyday, but on Thursdays, stores stay open to as late as 9 or 10 PM. Crazy huh? It's just so tame to the hardcore shopping scene in America.
