Post you from a different era

The only thing that could make this picture more 90s would be jean shorts.
Noah is sitting on a table, in front of a black board with some sort of optics equations on it. He is wearing an unbuttoned shirt over a white thermal shirt, and jeans.

I'm reminded of when I lived in a gated community and hadn't yet figured out that it keeps out Trick or Treaters...

(Fine print is in the alt text)
A bowl of full size candy bars and a sign that says "TAKE ONE, ONLY ONE OR BE FOREVER CURSED, ALSO DON'T RING THE DOORBELL.

Drop an old person you're gonna turn into in the future.
Philo from the movie UHF, sharing knowledge and helping people on an off brand TV channel.

Who's your favorite recurring (that is not part of the regular cast but kept showing up) sitcom character?

For me, definitely the fifth housemate.
The 4 main cast members of The Young Ones, and the mysterious fifth housemate, whose face is never seen, and is always hiding in plain sight, like a horror movie. You might not have even noticed them right away in this picture.

Life in 2025.
A quote post that says "Something nice to look forward to" while the original post has been deleted, much like everything nice these days.

Oh, hey, apparently we're on the front page of this year's landing site for GitHub Universe. I guess they liked our talk.
The front page of the GitHub Universe landing site. A section for Last Year's Sessions and our talk titled Dungeons and Deployments, The Clusters of Chaos is the only one shown with a video.

Might I suggest a different starting point, for adding the Old Bay to...
A can of Dr Brown's Cel-Ray, a celery flavored soda, that is way better than it sounds.

If you see this, repost with a vampire that is not Dracula.

Let's see you at 21. (Old enough to be prints edition)
Noah, sitting on the front desk in a college classroom, in front of a chalkboard covered in quantum optics lessons. He's facing the camera, wearing a solid colored flannel over a white waffle weave thermal shirt and jeans. He apparently doesn't know how to smile.

Without my glasses on, I thought these were the same account, and I got really confused...
Two consecutive posts from Matt Coville and the EFF, who apparently have very similar logos, but very different topics.

To be fair, it's my own fault...
A subsection of a steam profile showing 1368 games wishlisted. This person obviously has a problem and maybe doesn't understand how to use a wishlist properly.

How glad am I that I don't live in the desert any more?
A portable thermometer and hygrometer that reads 21.2 degrees C and 78% humidity. You cannot see that it is lightly raining outside, not hear the groovy music playing.

Not me, but proof my daughter does not care for your social conventions and expectations:
A bratwurst where someone has taken a bite out of the side, like some kind of animal eating carrion. Not using a knife, or biting the end, or anything else where form dictates usability.

Going through some old photos, I stumbled across possibly the greatest conference booth photo of all time.
An unstaffed booth consisting of a single white curtain for a backdrop, and a plain table with one empty folding chair. The minimalist sign reads "Linux Questions". Good luck.

The sheer audacity and genius of it always reminds me of this:
A food stand at a county faire, where the sign reads "Nestle Baby Ruth Stuffed Deep Fried Jalapeno served on a bed of Fresh Churros"
