Riot cop pleez to have you bring it on
I am pleased as punch to report that I cast the tenth vote on Farhad’s last sifted submission, thus making him the very FIRST sifter to get 1000 STARS! Yeah, you better believe it baby. That crazy Uzbek has earned one thousand stars, which is nothing less than phenomenal. Check out his new bling: A
To boot, he just recently passed mlx and is now the third highest-ranked member here. Still not impressed? Well then go to his profile page and learn what he’s about: The obscure. Check out his videos, and you’ll see that Farhad got to where he is the hard way, i.e., by posting obscure videos, which by their nature will generally have a limited appeal. Regardless of any video’s marketability he posted them anyway, because he has an eye for quality.
What do I like most about his videos? First I must say that I consider him to be a member of the Sift’s Holy Trinity of awesome eclectic music. (JAPR and Eklek are the other two members.) Now don’t get me wrong; I have found tons of great music from many, many members, but it seems that Farhad, along with JAPR and Eklek, have delighted me most with musical selections that I know I otherwise would never have heard had it not been for them. But that’s not all:
- He’s a cinephile extraordinaire, knowledgeable of films from around the world.
- He studies politics, and is more knowledgeable of American politics than most people I know (which are virtually all Americans, mind you).
- He knows about military history and hardware, better than 99% of the general public.
- He’s a thoughtful and incisive commenter, having earned 23 stars for applauded comments.
I could go on, but now I believe it’s time for us to applaud this sifting stalwart. Give it up for Farhad, the T1000 of VideoSift. (Oh yeah, he’s also made of liquid metal, and can kill you with stabby appendages.)
May his reign be just and filled with eclectic musical celebrations.
1000 stars is amazing Farhad, you deserve the crown! I always enjoy your great sifts and insightful comments and I look forward to another 1000 stars for you.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go dispose of my PR guy...
Farhad, you are thoughtful, intelligent, upstanding, well read and you can be quite endearing too because I think you're a hopeless romantic.
Pardon the aunty swampy tone here, but wow... In the last couple of years, I've watched you grow from a nice "college kid" into one hell of an impressive young man. I'm glad to know you Farhad.
Oh, and congrats on the sifts.
Brat.
Incidentally, what is this new power of yours, may we ask? An inexhaustible supply of Power Points? Tripled number of queue slots? The ability to edit others' comments? IDDQD?
I really am speechless at what you have said!
I would like to thank everyone because your votes made this happen (of course with a lil' but of coercion and self sift pimpage)
Am really shocked because I totally forgot how star points worked, I thought I had to sift 1000 videos before the milestone it was a nice surprise to wake up to it
congrats
So keep expanding your catalogue: feed the obscure, to complement the more common, your voice is heard and will be heard (even though the sift's growing).
Cheers/mille grazie!
Keep up the good sifting and enjoy your crown until the revolution comes and Siftonia, the republic, is founded.
(seriously though, always enjoyed your presence here.)
Farhad you are an inspiration. The golden thread in the tapestry of The Sift. Congratulations, my Liege.
It's an unbelievable accomplishment and extremely well deserved. I know you comment frequently lately about how much the Sift has changed (for the worse), but I hope you hang around to tell us all what 2000 stars feels like.
Enormous congratulations! The crown fits your head quite nicely.
congrats on being king shit on turd mountain
or a black hole.
...because if it had, then that sifter was more deserving.
congrats!

...by the way, that looks like the paper burger king crown they give to retarded kids.

Gee wiz, I'll NEVER make it to 1k. YouTube doesn't have enough Shatner clips to get me that far......... Dag and Lucky, how about a blue diamond or something for 750?

>> ^Zifnab:
I get tagged as the Dark Lord of the Sift and Farhad is the just and merciful king?
Of course, now that it turns out you've suddenly become our monarch, I have to heckle you and secretly plot a democratic revolution to overthrow you.
Farhad2000 cannot award a quality point for this Sift Talk post because Farhad2000 does not have enough Power Points - ignoring quality request by Farhad2000. (You can always purchase more Power Points.)
wait... a... minute...you mean the king doesn't get like unlimited power points or something?
sheesh.
anyway.....wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! congrats
more bling????...naw the crown is plenty till ya get off yer ass....

Anyone else notice that blank bullet?
Lemme help you out (admins) - here's what else you can give em: A Choggish - English dictionary.
The way I see it, a guy's been around long enough to accrue 1000 star points, he's got to be tired of trying to figure that shit out...
Can't let this shit go to your head. You've still got videos to post.
he's a mimetic polyalloy.
I am having thousand island dressing on my salad tonight in you honor!
What I want to know is : What new powers do you have?
smite?
autosift
deleteinternets

How about *invade?
(to claim small countries, island nations or abandoned oil platforms for VideoSift)
Now go do something difficult like make Carter popular or something.
Therefore, the kingdom of Videosift is now my sworn enemy!!!
Since i wasn't... i have come here today to show my hearty disdain for you. You are a turd.
