Hahaha this brings back memories. Back in the 90s I had a homepage on Angelfire.com. I was in high school at the time and I would work on the homepage during lunch in the school library if a computer was available.
I walked into the library one day and all three computers were taken, but right before I turned around to leave, somebody got up and freed up the middle computer. I quickly darted over to it before someone else had the chance. I sat down and because my adrenaline was slightly going, I typed in Angelfire.com really fast, ready to start building. Only it was anglefire.com, a hardcore porn site with flashing green banners and gifs, VERY noticeable. I was so confused as to what the fuck just happened that I froze for several seconds - staring at the screen in disbelief - before it occurred to me to close the god damn browser idiot! I remember going into a full-on panic; nausea, heart-racing, the works.
I was sure I got caught and would be expelled. There's no way it went undetected. I was surrounded by two people to my sides, six people at the circle desk behind me, and the librarian working at the shelf behind them. Somehow during those many seconds of just staring at the screen in a panic, not a single freakin person noticed! I couldn't believe it.
Now you would think I would be thankful nothing bad came of it and learned a valuable lesson, but being the opportunistic teenager I was, I took note how everyone was so entrenched within their own personal bubble. They wouldn't notice anything I was doing at those computers. I eventually used that knowledge to hack the security software on there and install a key-logger...
