I'm not, too busy with the new level :D.

Dynamithix 05-14-2011 12:44 PM

Then why the hell did you start a thread about it if you don't even watch it? That's dumb.

JennyGenesis 05-14-2011 01:33 PM

Becuase I wanted to know who was watching it. Just to get a rough guess of how many people are actually interested in it.

Wings of Fire 05-14-2011 01:39 PM

Strike Witch likes it, further proving my hypothesis that only a weird subset of fag likes it.

JennyGenesis 05-14-2011 01:41 PM

I think I best show my lover that post.......I did get a text from him tonight asking if I was watching it. I can only assume from that text that he is watching it.

gishygleb 05-14-2011 01:42 PM

Strike Witch likes yaoi and anime.

Wings of Fire 05-14-2011 01:44 PM

Shut up.

I was invited by my best friend's family to spend the evening with them and eat curry, it was on in the background while we played board games.

What I don't understand is why the songs are always so terrible - The best entry this year was France, mostly because their entry wasn't a cheap, shallow, mass-produced pop song, unlike most of the others, with many of the songs being an insult to music.

Last year my ex's family had it on while we ate dinner together. The Finnish had an entry that was sung by one of the singers from the band Värttinä. I mean I love Värttinä and their Finnish folk music, but that entry was as terrible as the others - It was painful to watch a normally talented person stoop so low. Augh.

If what you say is true, then why didn't Rebecca Black represent America?

Because she's too bad.

JennyGenesis 05-14-2011 02:16 PM

Oh, then Justin Bieber will have to do.

I believe he mentioned talented people, Justin Beiber doesn't fall under that category.

EUROvision.

Think about that for a second.

JennyGenesis 05-14-2011 02:31 PM

Now I feel and look stupid........................
:(

DarkHoodness 05-14-2011 02:49 PM

Ah sorry - It was silly on your part but I didn't intend to make you look stupid.

I was discussing this with my friends this evening, actually. If America did compete with other countries in a song contest though, then indeed, they probably would chose that crappy song performed by Rebecca Black as their entry. The style of that song fits right in.

Dynamithix 05-14-2011 02:50 PM

Finland's entry was so stupid.

Was it DINGOO? :P

Dynamithix 05-15-2011 12:10 AM

Sadly no, and it's DIGGOO.

Dixanadu 05-15-2011 12:31 AM

Ah. Well, he should have represented Finland.

Strike Witch 05-15-2011 05:19 AM

Azerbijan won.

AKA that European country nobody remembers

Ah well, their song was nice.

And Ireland did not win thank god

I'll assume that has to do with Jedward, and not the Irish in general.

STM 05-15-2011 05:27 AM

I really wanted them to win just to see the Irish banks crash again trying to afford hosting it. Again. And glad Britain tried to help by giving them all our points! HAHAFUCKINGHA!

But it's all political so no wonder Azerbaijan won it.

Dixanadu 05-15-2011 05:33 AM

Republic papers were majorly pissed Jedward represented them. Not just because they're shit, but because they're from Northern Ireland.

It would be like Kim Jung Il managing the South Korean national team.
