She didn't, didn't, didn't want me / Until I had the money

Twelve more days until Eurovision week, the best three nights of television of the year. It's a goddamn retro circuit party.

I'm liking Germany's entry (and Dita von Teese will be dancing on stage, brraow) and Iceland's, and a little disappointed with Sweden's (she's a fucking opera singer, who decided she should do shitty pop? Leave that to the professionals). Israel's sucks, but that's not a surprise, they haven't had a decent entry since Dana International in 1998, and before that not since Ofra Haza in 1983. This kid from Norway is cute and has a very strong voice (also, violin!) but he has no stage presence. I just don't understand Belgium's or Bulgaria's, so to be safe maybe they should be booted from the EU. And look, James McAvoy is apparently Bosnian (and not a good singer, either).

Ultimately, though, Serbia should win (omg this guy is awesome):

Up with the whatsit? Mark, have you been sampling your latest batch of brownies?

Did you sleep through all of World History? Proletariat. The working class. The common man. This is not a difficult term or an unusual term. Purchase a dictionary.

I have a dictionary. It's on my phone and stops me from misspelling things. Why not just say working class then?
