A birthday, a "P" and the answer to everything (first part)

Yesterday I went to a friend of mine's birthday party. We met last year at a language exchange event at the university in my city. I might have mentioned it in one of my texts here on Langcorrect.

Even though the room where the language exchange takes place was closed, my friend also invited some people that work at the organisation that manages this event, so we could party there.

When my friend invited me, she specified that the event was themed: everyone had to get dressed as something that starts with the same first letter as their name. Since my name is Pietro, my letter was "P".

Initially I thought of some unoriginal costumes (like "the pirate"), but then I had an idea: I'm going to dress up as a "problem"! I wrote a funny and meaningless math formula and I generated with ChatGPT a math frame. Then I did the same thing with the back of the image, where I wrote the solution: 42, a reference to the book “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy”. I printed everything and hung these papers around my neck with some twine. I even bought some post-its where I wrote some funny sentences to "help" people solve the problem. I wrote sentences like "It seems easy, but it's not" or "We explained this in class".
