    For some reason this reminds me of a college class I cut so many times, when I showed up for the final the professor had grown a beard since the last time I had attended, and I didn’t recognize him. It was about 10 minutes into exam time and people were just happily chatting away. I started to take a breath to announce loudly, “If he’s not here in two minutes I’m just gonna leave,” when this guy leaning against a desk talking to students suddenly said, “Welp, I guess we should get started.” It was the freaking prof. If he had waited another second it would have been total embarrassment.
