RocketSkates, the king of wishful thinking
Beaming out of the Hotel today!

Of course, I’m a complete stoic, like John Rambo being tortured for information. I give nothing away, except 3 free months of Habbo Club to –Dispirited-, apolla05, Freebird35714, ericrios, and Authentication! for their touching sentiments as I leave.
But really, the one that I thought nailed exactly how I felt (as well as the tone of my writing – sorry, I’m a snooty artiste, even about my silly 1980s pop culture jokes) about leaving you all today and saying goodbye was Art.Gal. Here’s what she had to say on my behalf, the words that won her a year’s worth of Habbo Club:
Dear Habbo:
It is with a heavy heart and sticky keyboard that I say farewell to you. From the moment I first logged into your vast server, touting myself as the undisputed Heavy Weight Champion of Totally Nerdy Trivia, I felt at home. I felt that a vital part of my life had finally come to be. It wasn’t always a smooth ride. Who can forget the frightful beginning to the Year of the Boar? It is with my trusty Wiimote at my side, that I will leave as loudly as I came. No, I will not be Shot Down in a Blaze of Glory, nor will I ever wash this pink shirt again. Heavy is my heart for it will never again feel the rush of winning a Falling Furni game... nor will I feel the joy of being the last Habbo to Hit the Wall. Never will my pinkness dance through Club Mammoth, getting my groove like Travolta in Saturday Night Fever while I dodge hundreds of friend requests from young Habbos just wanting to be able to say that I was on their friends list. As Carol Sobieski said in Annie, “How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.” And now, it is with a single tear in my eye, much like Linda Hamilton as she watched Arnold lower himself into that vat of molten metal at the end of Terminator 2, I bid adieu to Habbo.
Hasta la vista, Habbo!

Au Revoir, Adios, Good Bye, C Ya Later Aligators. *a tear drips down RocketSkates eyes, he slowly walks away and then the song: “Don’t You Forget About Me” starts to play; he holds up the peace sign*
I always wanted to go out like a John Hughes romantic comedy from the 1980s. I would make an excellent Molly Ringwald doppelganger, don’t you think? Anyway, it’s been a blast, jokers. Thanks to everyone for reminding me of the good times I’ve had here. My only regret is that I didn’t crush Kedo and take over the Hotel when I had the chance. Hopefully somebody will arise in the next week and fulfill that dream of mine.
As the Ramones said, Adios amigos!
