Twinkle 18 / Olympics
Olympic stadium plans: gold in changing them.
Brisbane's warming up for the Olympics by doing laps of the stadium decision.
A 15–60 second vertical Twinkle, filmed or AI-generated, with the sound of urine tinkling in the background. Start with the gripe, land the joke, then point to the fair-go fix.
