      more specifically, it's paying out the grandiosity of 1950s Australia, who, because of their victory in WW2, spared no expense in living out their largess and their sense of (earned) superiority (since they're literally: The Greatest Generation).

      @GG The character was born from satire (not stand-up) and evolved over time. Are you familiar with Kath & Kim, Chris Lilley, Sharon Strezleky? These are also some examples of Australian character satire. The American comic Amy Shultz has also had immense success in parodying a white, privileged young trash bag character, and is considered very funny in todays day and age.
