Do you know Alien_Concept? You should. Interesting, edgy, artful and musical posts abound in her queue. This new goldy has a tough, confidant commenting style that never placates or tiptoes, but is at the same time thoughtful and modest. It's been a while since I've seen a Sifter with this kind of strut and swagger. Showed up February of this year, and surprised herself that she would even get caught up in a web community. She's got cronies around, and is part of rich movement here on the Sift. Check out the queue and pq, because she takes the time to look at yours. Three cheers for Miss Scissors and her cutting style!

Huzzah!

Everytime I see a dark comedy video, there's at least 3 comments that link to a "darker" situation. Should we just duke it out already? Get it out of our systems? I mean, come on already...there's some dark crap out there but this is getting ridiculous. I think we should have a contest.

Who's got the darkest humor?

IT Crowd is Back

One of my favorite Britcoms The IT Crowd is back on the air after a hiatus. I don't live in Britain, but er ... I have a really long antennae on my roof.

I have to say that British TV comedy is superb. I also have really enjoyed Mitchell and Webb, Extras and HyperDrive. Any Anglophiles have suggestion of other shows in this vein I could point my antennae at?

The Songs

personally, I don't like very much the music invasion here in this channel.

in my opinion, here it would be nice to have something that cries out "I AM BRITISH" (think about Molsten "I am Canadian" beer ad) and not simply "whatever is made by any british or vaguely related to it".

is this my feeling or it is shared by someone?

With the collectives changed to channels I thought it appropriate to broaden the scope of the British Humour channel so it encompasses all things British. Come visit the British Invasion at:
