I really don’t know who’s idea it was, but there is this idea that November is mens health awareness month, so people should grow mustaches to raise awareness.
My guess is it was a clever way to give legitimacy to “no-shave November”
Whatever the case may be, my coworkers thought a contest was in order. Not content with just a mustache contest, each participant had to agree to grow the style he drew from a hat of styles.
A day or two into this contest, I had the idea that I would take a picture every day, and then make some sort of animation of the results.
Two problems arose out of that. One, I forgot to take the picture several days, and two, making the animation turns out to be a huge headache. I will throw the sad results of my attempt at the end of the post.
Not so sad were the contest results, where I won both the overall, and “participants only” voting with this:
I split the prize for winning with Heather, mostly because she felt she was suffering more for this contest than I was 🙂
