I doubt there's any other photo I could use as my last Whiskerino photo than this one. @Chinfropro, thanks for the awesome photobooth setup.

I'm not entirely sure how to sum up the past couple years of all of this, but I'll say obviously: much thanks to @Mackle. You've managed to not only make a website entirely devoted to strangers growing beards not be creepy, but actually an incredibly meaningful part of a lot of people's lives. When I started this, I was a goof in college, right off freshman year. I'm now working in NYC and married. 6 years went by pretty quickly.

I hope something is bound to come up in the next few years to reunite this weird group of interweb guys, but if not: it's been great getting to know as many of you as possible, and I hope to stay in touch.

You're the best Davis! I feel like I'm signing a yearbook all day today but alot of those sentiments are exactly true. I hope to see you again someday (moustached) and I WILL make my way up to New York.. at which time we will have a fantastic time drinking beers and talking nerd talk.

But we can rest assured that we were on thefacebook before it was cool...or whatever that means...b/c now it kinda fucking sucsk b/c its so goddamn big and ubiquitous. I can't find anyone on there when i'm looking for them....oh well.

JamesC says:: I am so glad we got to meet. You were the reason I did all this and my life is complete that we got to shake hands and hang out for a bit.

When you walked by me at the last night's party and told me that you thought I was the sexiest man alive, I really wanted to punch you, because hey, everyone but you knew it.

You are my brother now, and have always been adopted. We'll hang out again, that's a promise.

mOtke says:: He smiled the largest smile that history had ever seen. That smile, of course, was inspired by the kittens bursting from the center of the earth in a large geyser of fur and cuteness. The kittens were hurled several hundred feet into the air then landed safely on a pillow made of cotton and more kittens. It was a joy of all joys.

In the distance, @mattyc was sneezing, wondering why he was here and if @davis would mind grabbing a taco with him.

The day was complete.

Army of Whiskers says:: Love this shot. An innocent toddler trapped in a man's body. Your photos were awesome. Especially the ones with v-necks.

I was hoping to bump into you at the Throwdown, but there was a sea of beards in the way. I've followed your tumblr though.

Thanks for growing a beard with me. See you around.
