I am going to bow out of whiskerino.

No, this is not because of my little escapade yesterday.

It just wasn't fun.

I tried pretty hard in the beginning to fit in, but I always felt ignored and not cool enough. It just seems like this place is a big clique for grown up dudes, and I've never been one to be in a clique.

Anyway, hopefully with me bowing out, you guys can all have your "feature" of javascript in your about me section back. But to be honest, it probably shouldn't have been a feature in the first place.

At any rate, I wish I could say it was fun while it lasted, but it wasn't.

Sir Walshington says:: wow. sorry to hear you feel that way. best of luck and, in the least, you know what your face looks like with a big beard now!

SoulGlo1976 says:: What? I'm not clique-ish!

Oh well, good luck.

runningantelope says:: oh man you gotta open yourself up more. i had the same feelings my first whiskerino. what you get out of whiskerino is a reflection of how much you know yourself. i admit the javascript stuff is a little ridiculous, and i'm a JS developer. But man, don't blame the cliques. shame!

brandon says:: Sorry to see you go, especially with so little time to go. Hope you finally get your Girabaldi or Verdi.

SoulGlo1976 says:: I feel from my own personal experience being in my first (and supposedly last) Whiskerino that Whiskerino is ALL about what you make of it. I've posted a picture everyday since I've been in, I've made a Helluva lot of comments, I've been active in the chats, and I've held my own against habitual smack talkers on occasion.

I've had a blast and I've gotten to know some extremely cool people through this site. It's also pushed me creatively. I can't wait for the Throwdown. It's going to be LEGENDARY.

I'm really sorry you haven't reaped the same kind of joys I've reaped from this Whiskerino. Again, best wishes.

revgoomba says:: Dude, this a joke, right? I mean, tomorrow's photo will clear all this up. Won't it?

aaron b says:: @wookiemonster Can I ask what exactly this "escapade" was?

@commadelimited nice!! I like yours better!

About:

I'm shooting for either a Girabaldi or a Verdi. I hope I can achieve that one day.

I like growing a beard, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Javascript, and Arduinos.

I am always in the whiskerino IRC channel on freenode. You should join too...
