Got an email that says "please pay $33 + shipping to get a t-shirt with our ad on it"
There's people that would actually pay for something like this? This stuff is usually give away for free at conferences and then used as a sleeping dress, no?

Glad you asked me what it is. So you see, there are things call webpages. Yes, they are pages on the web. Guess what, there are people making them. Shocking, right? So part of the webpage…
my favorite feature on this image every time I see it is the man on the right. pretty sure he is not amused about having to listen to what is happening behind him
I kinda think of it as a memento mori... he's like: yep, that was me, 20 years ago... keep the sunglasses on son, now lean in and put your hand on her neck... yep, I remember those days...
The not-quite-visible whitehaired person to the left only adds to the effect. Like: this is the inevitable course of your life, buddy.
