It’s the first of January 2026. You wear your t-shirt with the VHS cover art for 1992’s ‘Passenger 57’ on it. You bump into an old friend you haven’t seen in 10 years, let’s call him Sebastian McGillicuddy. You chit chat, he compliments your objectively awesome t-shirt, then you part ways, expecting to never see him again.

It’s the third of February 2026. You decide that it’s time to break out the Passenger 57 shirt again, because you haven’t worn it since the first of January. You somehow bump into Sebastian McGillicuddy again. You now think “dammit, Sebastian McGillicuddy must think I have one fuckin’ shirt and that I wear it every day like a fuckin’ madman”.

What’s the word for that? How do you refer to it without having to type out paragraphs of text like I did above? “Oh yeah, bumped into Sebastian McGillicuddy the other day, had a moment of [word] with him lol, hate when that happens”.

P.S. FUCK Sebastian McGillicuddy.

    I mean… Hugo Boss would take issue with not dressing to impress. But I guess even then it’s understated by fashion standards.

        Exactly. Germans are stylish, generally. They don’t need a Nazi for that shit. It’s just that most Germans are also relatively environmentally conscious. Aber scheint nicht so beim Auto

            That’s fair, though they’re trying to make a profit by convincing us that we have to buy new designer clothing instead of used clothing that is less fragile.
