This slaps
Obviously that deserves an explanation.
In my early years of teaching our computer graphics course, we would often make an end-of-term t-shirt featuring student projects. We'd include an image of the prof somewhere. This was Spring 2003; I appear in Neo drag, doing a Bullet Time maneuver (Matrix Reloaded had just come out).
In the early 2020s we were cleaning up the lab and got rid of extras of old t-shirts we still had lying around. We left them in a hallway somewhere. A random first-year engineering undergrad (who was born in 2003, ha) grabbed one. By chance, he wore it to go rock climbing yesterday. I'd like to thank him for making life a little more surreal.
[edit: dug the t-shirt image out of the memory hole]
