On Reddit a couple of weeks back, u/fela_nascarfan made the post New Emacs T-Shirt which both made me laugh and inspired want for such a nerd-kitch (yet cool!) t-shirt. Something visually striking with just enough absurd would definitely start a conversation, which I think ties in well with this month’s Emacs Carnival topic “Your Elevator Pitch for Emacs”.

Sadly, the FSF doesn’t have the Emacs vaporwave merch of my dreams, but I can channel my inner Napoleon Dynamite to type into an AI prompt and see what happens.

Sharing the results of my wanton foolishness below. Who knows what happens next, but everything starts as an idea, no?

Outrun energy.

Outrun redux, but more old-school BSG font.

GTA SoCal flavor.

Another GTA variant.

Destination MIA.
