A beautiful fairy appeared one day to a destitute refugee claimant outside the Brisbane immigration offices.
'My good man,' the fairy said, 'I've been told to grant you three wishes, since you just arrived in Australia with your wife and five children.'
The man told the fairy: 'Well, where I come from we don't have good teeth, so I want new teeth, maybe a lot of gold in them.'
The fairy looked at the man's almost toothless grin and --PING!!! He had a brand new shining set of gold teeth in his mouth!
'What else?' asked the fairy, 'two, more wishes, to go'.
The refugee claimant now got bolder.
'I need a big house with a three car garage on Cheveron Island with eight bedrooms for my family and the rest of my refugee relatives who still live in my country. I want to bring them all over here.
PING! - In the distance there could be seen a beautiful mansion with a three car garage, a long driveway, a walkout patio with a BBQ, overlooking the river.
'One, more wish, left for you', said the fairy, waving her wand.
I want to be like the Aussies with Australian clothes instead of manjams, and an Acubra instead of this turban.
And I want to have white skin like the Aussies.'
PING! - The man was transformed, wearing worn out jeans, a tired old flanalette shirt and a sweat stained Acubra. He had his bad teeth back and the mansion had disappeared from the horizon.
'What happened to my new teeth?' he wailed. 'Where is my new house?'
The fairy said 'Tough luck. Now that you are Australian, you're entitled to f*** all!!!!' And she disappeared!
