Well here we go, vote away. It's great asking something like this on here where the demographic is mostly "straight" white males but please, no arguments about which toilet people should piss in though. Just good natured insults, as per  |

The missus loves it and her and her family have Eurovision parties and go the whole hog with fancy dress and what not. I don稚 have strong feelings either way, so I知 sure we値l be watching it and having a drink. And in truth I知 only with her after her sharing her Conchita Wurst outfit.  |

Generally I avoid this like the plague but I think I'm going to give it a go this year.
We'll of course be consuming plenty of alcohol but the wife and I are going to choose our favourite 3 songs and i'll chuck a wager on each of those and see if we can win any money! Sadly Ireland didn't qualify so can't have any friendly rivalry with the wife and in-laws.
I suspect the UK and Israel won't be massively popular this year with our European friends and partners!

Always enjoy watching Eurovision. It's nonsense, but there are usually a few good laughs and one or two half decent songs, and it's a good excuse to get drunk.

It is the greatest thing ever. Much better than international football.

Having voted Fuck off it痴 as bad as half and half scarves, I致e drawn Georgia in the neighbourhood make a dish and bring it over for a smorgasbord of various food and drinks with some of our neighbours. Will I be watching boom, bang a bang boom euro trash? Hell no. I値l be watching a film or something about World War Two with the blokes on the other telly in their house while the women get pissed, moist and generally wankered on wine. You already know how the votes are going to be cast and we値l end up with nil points again. Europe were only interested in our cash point card which has more or less expired thank fuck. Enjoy.

Ah Eurovision. A competition for Europe but paid for by the BBC, hence we automatically qualify each year. A competition we are guaranteed to finish last in forever as we are universally hated by all the other countries with Brexit the final nail in the coffin. Personally I think we should no longer be part of this shitshow and have the BBC stop funding it.

Its not just paid for by the BBC though is it? Contributions are made up from the participating broadcasters. Also, I'm pretty sure Bamboo didn't want this to deteriorate into some Brexit discussion.  |

TBH its a bit of a laugh and some of the songs are actually quite good, this years Portugal and Iceland are 2 tips, we watched the 2nd semi last night and it was entertaining. The UK entry is ok too.
We often watch it for a laugh and to watch and guess the tactical voting of the eastern european countries which makes a mockery of it being anything serious so we treat it as such. My best mates missus takes it seriously and has her Czech, Lithuanian and Polish neighbours round for it each year and really takes it serious much to our amusement.
And no I agree with FH its not the same without Wogan maye the great man rest in peace in his whiskey castle.
