TIBONG... what the Hell is a TIBONG. =)

TIBONG is my nickname/ artist name. What is a TIBONG... well a TIBONG stands for.
The Infraggable Big Orange Nobody Guy. . . but you can call me Larry. =)

It was born in 2004 at Wizard World Chicago. A group of us Stikfas forum pals were meeting up for the first time at the Convention. I live like a half an hour from where the Con takes place (that little nugget is where the N comes in). It was like my first time meeting a bunch of strangers ( trust me, I have a sad life filled with deep amounts of nothingness and non interactionness with the outside world). So like for me this was a big deal, yes I liked these guys behind the computer screen but how would my oddness handle in real life. This is where the Nobody Guy comes in, I spent just a bit of time with these guys. We all walked the Con and chatted a bunch but I didn't spend as much time as one would think for only living a half hour away.

I don't know why I didn't hang around more, it was probably just my shyness, or awkwardness that did me in. I made some real good friends that weekend, actually my only real good friends. I would gain a few more good friends the next few years but those first guys really did a good thing for my own well-being. I love those guys dearly and miss them so very much.

Anyway, Infraggable is a word that was created on Dexter's Laboratory... just type in Infraggable Krunk and you'll see a big Purple Hulk like character. I was using that word at the Stikfanatics forum (cause I like to change my nickname all over the place). At the time I was a Bigger man (so that is where the B comes in), now not so much. Orange because I was wearing an Orange Bears jersey. So there you have it.
