is ti ok if this thread makes no sense to me?
*it
can i say the same only a bit more girly?
What?
Do you mean you don't watch Eurovision? Why are you on here?
Don't Ireland put shit entries in on purpose
because having to host the Eurovision Song Contest loads of times was draining their economy so much?
:D
I want to shower you with sugarlumps
you lost Cyril
Is that Britain's excuse too?
"Look, we don't want to host it so we're sending Daz Sampson"
They did
But that was in the days before the Celtic Tiger, now they can pay Polish people to put it on for them. Unfortunately when you try to win Eurovision you'll probably fail.
I watched the first half of the semi-final last night.
Somebody, it might be Slovenia, have a sexy lady with a tattoo on her boob.
There was also some more exciting rock from Finland and a brilliant song that may have been Bosnia that featured some guy dressed like a marionette and his sister hanging out some washing.
Pretty powerful stuff.
....

She really is quite sexy
Her nipple! It's making a break for it!
IT'S MIGRATING! (/iggypop)
This why we shouldn't vote for UKIP
Sexy nipples ahoy!
You're missing words all over the place today.
You're like a violated library book.
My copy of Lady Chatterly's Lover is still drying on the radiator.
I got my head boo-booed at the weekend
I think I'm still suffering
BOO BOO BOOP
...
It is a passenger
It rides through the cleavage tonight...
Those 3 old dudes singing that strange song
was excellent but got booed by the crowd :(
They got cheered by me though!
Were they the ones in the coloured suits?
Did you see the heaven/hell dudes? They were pretty incredible.
They were amazing
the marionette one sounded like it could be a Get Up Kids song :D
SOMEBODY HAVE A SEXY LADY
there goes the only points the UK could hope for
From upstairs
I thought the Bosnian (maybe) one was something that had somehow worked it's way into my music collection. I swear it wasn't far off sounding like <generic twee band>
Strangely enough, seeing it made it seem even more so.
Was that last night?
Aww fuck. :(
semi final number 1.
the second semi final is tomorrow.
Eurovision is on BBC1, saturday, at 8pm.
Dustin is out
IT DOESNT MATTER ANYMORE
...
I was outvoted 2:1 - so I ended up watching some of this last.
My personal badge of honour would have to go to the Russian entry. It was very mature cheddar. And the phrase "This song can't get any worse--oh." was uttered at least three times during.
BELGIUM ARE SINGING IN A MADE UP LANGUAGE
WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE, ENYA?
FUCK OFF
Its like () never sold 500,000 copies
they may as well have been singing in Icelandic though,
no one would be any wiser.
I think the people of Iceland might disagree with you
but point taken. Is the Belgian entry obviously gibberish then?
not really,
i mean, it could be any weirdo slavic language basically. it's just obviously not german/french.
Belgium's a made-up country though.
It's not real. They can do whatever the hell they like, the crazy Belgies.
...
Do they even have a government yet?
they don't need one, they've got Poirot
I can't wait.
Isn't our representative Andy Binman?
My wife
once paid a turkey to tarmac our drive. What we didn't expect was for the turkey to subcontract the work out to a herd of chickens. The mess they made of it.
...
...a herd of chickens? -10 points.
It really is
the true-life "My Lovely Horse" though isn't it?
RTE = obviously skint at the mo.
shoal?
Azerbaijan?
what. the FUCK
IT'S A EUNUCH FROM HELL
Are you watching this in a different time zone?
How big is Europe these days?
iplayer
i missed it last night.
...
What the fuck, indeed. How is Azerbaijan a European country? It's barely a country in itself.
On the other hand
.....Israel quite clearly is? It stopped being European long ago.
again
i suspect the Azeris might disagree about that. though...who gives a fuck about them. and the Armenians hate them, so fuck em
i just watched the irish entry
and, even having seen it before, god it's shameful.
fucking hell, there are boos!
amusing MAYBE for some kind of gash sketch show, but not for real life.
i can just imagine people voting for it during Eurosong.
'ah man dis'll be 'larious dustinzafukin lej man he's savig'
ugh
are Finland stuck in a Gwar video?
