ITALY 12

 

[ButterTart]

So weird to hear people booing when the UK don't get points.

 

[dzjermlaw]

Another couple of drinks and I might start busting out my Piper Alpha material.

I have some great stuff on the Marchioness disaster that has just been waiting for an audience.

That shade of blue is making my anus flutter

IN IRELAND.

Nice SVT logo!

 

[Ich Carniva-la-la-la]

25,000 televotes!!

 

[OutSynk]

OH GIVE IT A REST.

NOT FUNNY

9/11

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Was this last year the contest had a competent host? It’s really unsettling.

 

[Zu]

Actually I did SECRETLY QUITE LIKE the Irish entry

 

[Ich Carniva-la-la-la]

Bosnia had a DIFFERENT flag!

 

[Zu]

The Swede

 

[ButterTart]

So the Summerland fire was a lark.

No word of a lie I could do an entire ranking of disasters. SPOILER ALERT: The Konginkangas Bus Disaster is far higher up than you'd expect.

PERVERT

I'm expecting some of 1981 to be as dull as watching paint peel in the Paddington rail disaster, so drop it then.

 

[Madison]

DRINK!

 

[Ich Carniva-la-la-la]

Love the reaction from the crowd to Iceland getting points!

 

[octophone]

Oddly, the youtube comments feed is WILD right now...running so fast it's unreadable.

What about the Albanian Bus Crash? They couldn’t even air EUROVISION

 

[THEY CALL ME GAJA]

Sweden giving Iceland 8 points on one of the only televotes shows you how different it would have been had it been entered a few years later

Oh good grief.

Let's not repeat MASSACRE RATE

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

I couldn’t even name ONE bus disaster.

As it should be.

The Los Alfaques Disaster always ranks surprisingly highly for me.

Oh it’s completely fucking pointless. Not like the sophisticated, thoughtful pace of the lounge

Isn't this normal for popular shows? You should see some of the Twitch streamers I've watched, you're lucky if you can EVER read the chat it moves so fast

 

[ADONK5]

Cyprus, Iceland, Italy, Turkey, and the UK are our top 5.

 

[ButterTart]

In fairness they still can't. It's the only country to air the entire contest via Ceefax.

Which 1980s disaster do they think was the best?

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

Omg who else gave Portugal points? I LOVE YOU

 

[Alla]

Oh they already boo this Cyprus-Greece shit. Good.

 

[Ich Carniva-la-la-la]

Come on Turkey!

Krakatoa SHAKING AND CRYING
