I'm clearly old as I think it's disgusting a song titled "Choke Me" is seen as acceptable.

Agree - just for the controversy, I think. Dire.

I think she goes to the same surgeon as Janis from The Muppets.

Lithuania makes me think of Tilda Swinton. I can see her doing the silver paint.

Apparently the two Greek presenters bet each other 50 euros - one on the UK getting 0, the other on it getting in the top 10!

Reckon she'd be up for a bit of the 'vis incognito

I was listening to Vomitory the other day, I liked the song so pulled my Ipod out of my pocket to see what it was called...

Raped Strangled Sodomized Dead.

As such I can't really get excited about 'Choke Me'.

It's unacceptable.

You're not alone. It is disgusting.

And yet it has nothing to do with sexual/ violent choking

Who came up with such complicated voting rules.

I like the current voting system. It's brutal and very exciting to watch. It was to reduce the impact of block voting.

Its 2 women a week killed by a partner. None of what you said is fine.

Oh i dislike it and it does minimise block voting I agree. But to come up with this system as a concept

God this is dated

Dated is the new future?

Binglebong · 16/05/2026 22:58

No one rode a giant phallic this year. I suppose Choke Me was the most controversial thing they could think of. And listening to the rest of the lyrics it was definitely swxual violence, it's streaky nieve to think otherwise.

It has everything to do with it. Everything. Women are not free. Women are not safe.

@suki1964 It is a disgusting title, regardless of what the song was actually intended to be about. End of.
Would a title "Hit Me" (or worse) been permissible?

CrushingOnRubies · 16/05/2026 22:59

I love Billy Joel

I remember when Buffy first came out the mag i read had a guide to what the valley speak meant. Had explanations for dated and carbon dated!
