Alien_Concept Ascends to Galaxy Level!
I'm really happy to announce that one of my favourite (yes, that's the right spelling) Sifters has reached Galaxy level. I'm always amazed at the dedication required to have 2,000 sifted videos - especially as your founder is languishing around the 650 mark. I feel a real sense of gratitude and respect for people who contribute this much to our little community. Thank you Alien_Concept. I present the bespoke and solitary Alien_Concept badge!:
Designed as usual by our pal Chris Murphy - I think he's captured a confused alien perfectly.
Also - as is our custom here, I've written and performed a song in Alien_Concept's honour (again with the spelling). This time - I draughted (er, is that right?) Siftbot to help with the writing and performance - as musically, I'm about tapped.
Alien Concept - we do what we must because we can
Siftbot here to tell you what I'm thinking
With regard to your comments - I have to say I've read them all
Your biology won't set you free - you seem obsessed with Dave Grohl
[F]But There's no point [c]dwelling in the [Bb]things you've [F]repressed
meat life is [c]weak you're just the [Bb]same as the [F]rest.
Although I'd [Gm]rather not [c]stay - Dag has [F]forced me here to [Dm]play
[Bb]This song for [A]your galax[D]y.
Alien Concept - Do you mind if I call you AC for short?
Let's move on to other things I've noticed
I've already noted your love for dark and grungy lads
I'll make a prediction and put forth, your favourite colour is plaid
[F]Well these points of [c]data make a [Bb]wonderful [F]line,
even Ricky [C]Gervais fits my [Bb]graphing just [F]fine.
There's just [Gm]one point that doesn't [C]fit a time for [F]hearts and chocolate [Dm]bits -
it's your [Bb]hatred of [A]Saint [D]Valentines.

PlayhousePalsThis is most excellent news! Congratulations to one I greatly admire
rasch187Congrats, AC - been a long time coming! Rae and I joined the sift at about the same time and not only has she been a great sifter but also a great friend. Even had the pleasure to meet her a few years back and she was just as witty and charming in meatspace as she is here.
gwiz665Congrats! Couldn't be more deserved.
Now, if you'll allow me to bust out an old chestnut format:
There once was a gal from UK
who had so much to say
through all her work, rose like captain kirk
to a galaxy far far away.
PlayhousePalsSifty reminds me a bit of Marcy Playground with his tune
The siftbot has quite a singing voice. Excellent songwriting!
oritteropoThat's an excellent alien badge
It's a pretty decent Jonathan Coulton cover too.
Three cheers each for @alien_concept, @dag and Chris Murphy.

I don't know about Siftbot - but I love Marcy Playground. So maybe I've influenced him/her/it.
