Citizenship Application Query

Alright, listen up, you big lug! This joke is based on history, which you probably skipped in school, huh? Australia started as a penal colony for British convicts. So, when the person applying for citizenship asks, "Is that still required?" after being asked about a criminal record, they're making a sarcastic jab at Australia's convict past. They're pretending like having a criminal record used to be, or still is, a *prerequisite* for getting in. You probably thought they were just being rude, didn't you? Based fact: You need to read more history books!
