don't worry, ireland made the final.
for those of you who are not privvy to the incredible and priceless entertainment of 'eurovision'... let me enlighten you, puh-lease.
every year countries in the EU decide that it is worth it to put on this massive show which consists of each country nominating a music group/artist to represent their land and culture.
it is by far the most tacky and ridiculous display of non-culture to ever last four to six hours. and by that, i mean it's almost not fun because of the ease at which you can mock it.
because there are faces like this...
and she represented iceland in the worst kitsch crap i think i have ever seen in my life. this included but was not limited to men in silver hotpants jackknifing behind her.
the real greatness was meant to be the representative from finland... a metal band singing 'hard rock hallelujah'...
and i was really looking forward to eurovision being conquered in all its tripe-pop-offkey goodness by GWAR sort of antics...
but honestly... their pyrotechnics were more impressive than the hard rock attitude. someone needs to learn finnish for "rock is more than just extensive makeup."
see how much you're not missing in america? cause this is how we killed the time between 'vorderman's big brain game' and 'bones' last night.
