I was the kid in the 2007 ad Sam Kekovich pulled my pants up that were halfway down like a cool skater kid lol. He sounds exactly like this in person and is a hilarious dude. He literally lifted me off the ground and we did 3 takes. 10/10 ate so much lamb that year.

@@karlhendrikse It always cracks me up when Gen Y folks rant negatively about millennials. Not even realising that THEY ARE millennials. 🤣🤣🤣 What's worse, are those who are born early to mid 80's that don't want to be tarred with the negative stigma that millennials have attracted. And they like to think they're more edgy than millennials but they don't meet the age criteria to be a Gen X-er, so they actually call themselves "Xennials". As if squeezing a sub-generation between generations doesn't prove how much of a millennial they are. 🤣🤣🤣

Is there anything particularly funny about the housing crisis in Australia? The high cost of housing is destroying Australia's living standards. Once upon a time, hardworking Australians could expect to afford a house with a backyard, a garage, mailbox, front porch, family room, shed. These hardworking homeowners had a sense of pride in being a part of the community. They could offer their neighbours a proud, friendly wave over the fence in the morning. Today, however, the Australian dream is on the slow beep of life support. In 1981, an Aussie home cost approximately 5 times the annual wage of a worker. Today it's 14 times. This high cost of housing is reducing Australians to living like paupers. Australians are sleeping on couches, moving into garages, harassed with rental inspections, snowed under in debt. Is this how we want to live in a prosperous nation like Australia? Advertising like this reinforces the narrative that the housing crisis is an accident. It wasn’t anyone’s fault. No one meant for Australian homes to be unaffordable. Let's all have a giggle about it and come together again. Well, that is exactly what the ruling class in Australia wants you to believe. They want to trivialise this issue, and accustom you to a lower and lower standard of life.
