Eurovision: The Thread

It's that time of year again. As is becoming disturbingly frequent these days, I'm working on Eurovision evening so I can't have a proper party around it. You lot will have to do.

For those unfamiliar with Google, the Eurovision Song Contest is the inspiration behind our own Song Contest here in GD. There's less prog rock and more batshit stupidity. And politics. Lots and lots of regional politics.

Show starts in just over four hours. I've just devised the 2014 iteration of my alternative scoring system (Quality out of 10, Insanity out of 10, Set & Costume out of 5, Cheese out of 5, 1 bonus point available for Mental Scarring, and 1 bonus point available for whatever Miscellaneous reason presents itself). Just about to go out and get some snacks. Watch it with me, mafiascum. Let's do this shit.

As is tradition, I haven't seen either of the semi-finals. I like to go in completely cold on the big night.

I've heard about it - one for after the show...

Slightly underwhelming contest overall but a good winner. I just wish France had got a shedload more points - the only country to get 10/10 on insanity from me; nobody else got more than 6. Take it less seriously, y'all!

My only regret about going to Orlandomeet is that I will miss Eurovision.
