Given two users in extremely close geographic proximity, the chances of them having manually logged in on the device themselves with your housemate either forgetting or not knowing are much much higher than the chances of an authentication exploit in the world's most popular site that would have gone undiscovered for a subsequent five years at this point.
Probably somewhere between the two (but closer to the "they just logged in on that computer" side of things) is the chance of the LAN being some eldritch abomination that just occasionally serves responses to the wrong local IPs, but that's not something any online service needs to care about.
