Eurovision Countdown: Converting Your Friends into Eurovision Fans

Here's a completely fail-proof (read: it probably won't work on anyone) guide to converting anyone and everyone ever into a hardcore Eurovision fan.

• Everyone knows that Eurovision songs grow on you the more you hear them, so play your favorite country's song on repeat at full volume until everyone around you starts to love it as much as you do. 
• Invite your friends over to watch a Eurovision marathon. Start in 2010 and work your way up from there. Bonus: Pretend you don't know the winners of the last ten contests by heart. 
• Talk about nothing but Eurovision in the days leading up to the final. You're probably going to be doing this anyway, but now you can tell yourself that you're doing it for a good cause.
• Make Eurovision party invites and send them to all of your friends/co-workers/colleagues/fellow human beings. Someone's bound to show up, right? 

Disclaimer: This how-to guide was created in the spirit of pure fun in order to pass the time until the final. You should probably consult someone who knows things about people, AKA not Kaija, before attempting any of the above. Kaija doesn't know how people work, or even what they are, really. Proceed at your own risk.
