Don't look!

[Poki]

Do you panic & cover your/minimize things on your screen when someone comes in your room, or are you completely fine with it?

Boys, I know it's hard for you. (no pun intended) :P

As for me, I minimize everything immediately like a ninja. It's just a reaction I developed from closing the Skype windows whenever I talk with a friend online, and someone decides to come in my room.

 

[Oryx]

It depends on what's on my screen, really.

Besides, covering up the screen is so suspicious. I minimize whatever it is that I don't want someone to see.

Had to edit 'cause people either cover up, or minimize stuff. :P I, for one, minimize everything.

It is suspicious. I did that with my phone once, and now my mother thinks I have a boyfriend, when I was just chatting w/my bestie. Awkward. {XD}

 

[Hikamaru]

I always like to cover my computer or heck even close my door when people try to enter my room, mainly because I don't want them to know that I go on PC or Tumblr.

 

[AuroraBeam]

I don't think I've ever minimized a screen unless I was doing something I wasn't supposed to, lol. Sometimes I switch between tabs if I don't want whatever page I was viewing to be seen for whatever reason, but I only live with my BF and I don't have much to hide from him lol, he knows how weird I am. :P

 

[GoldenHouou]

I do it by reflex from my days of porn watching and often make an innocent site look way more suspicious than it is. Heck, I could be reading the news and if someone pops up behind me/I see someone approaching, I close it in a snap. It's weird, I'm trying to learn out of the habit. It's annoying to navigate back, particularly because I use Incognito mode.

 

[Nathan]

Boo there's no need to close tabs and all that stuff. Just switch to that essay on MS Word <3

 

[Khilia]

I actually close everything when I hear someone coming in my room, mostly because...
1) I got startled
2) I have my certain privacy, don't I
3) my parents don't allow me to do what I'm doing right now, in other words, they really dislike it when I do stuff on a foreign-languaged website already, they don't like it if I talk with people I don't know personally over the internet etc. etc.
:<

 

[Dustmop]

I don't just minimize everything. I open a new tab on Firefox and then minimize, so it doesn't even leave part of the name of the page when either of my parents come in.
What makes this even weirder is that I have several bra-related blogs pinned to that makeshift home page, so that page isn't exactly SFW either. It just seems to make the moment a special kind of awkward when they want me to look something up for them. {XD}

 

[Sheep]

I don't minimize anything because I have nothing to hide. All I do is browse forums, watch anime, check out youtube videos, or talk to people. Privacy is nice and all but my parents aren't out to stalk what I do so it's no biggie to me.

 

[Bellsprout]

Um no wtf do you guys go on... ANYWAY I watch porn on my phone so that's not an issue. When I'm on the actual computer I'm literally checking here and maybe going on tumblr so not much to hide.

 

[Kikaito plush]

Depends on what it is and who it is

 

[Nick]

I don't hide anything. I don't really have anything to hide. It's whatever if they see what I'm looking at or doing.

 

[Sonata]

I don't like people knowing what I'm doing. I use chrome so I always browse incognito so that my parents can be like "so what have you been up to?" And I'll just point to spotify and whatever random book is beside me that I haven't actually been reading.

 

[professor plum]

When I was a kid, yeah, sure, most of the time. Nowadays, I don't really care. I'm usually on my laptop, and I don't have anything to hide from anyone..unless, of course, I'm like on Tumblr in public. Then, I'll switch tabs.

..Or, I just won't browse it. Can't risk it!

 

[RedWarrior702]

I don't have much to hide (except fan fiction and when I'm talking to certain friends online) but I still make it a point to close my tabs that aren't PC or any other common website my family would expect me to be on... Or homework. It's just become instinct to do so if my brother tries to catch me talking to someone. One example of that is my friend from across the ocean that my parents became very suspicious of >_>
Good thing I'm going off to college in August xD

 

[-Yoshi-]

I have Twitter in another tab at all times, so I just exit out of PC and pretend I'm scrolling there.
I really don't want them to know I'm back into Pokemon. I don't care that much, I just don't wanna deal with the jokes.

 

[Sirfetch’d]

Depends. If someone is watching me have a conversation, I'll minmize it as that is kinda private but other than that I am usually just browsing PC or gaming so I don't care if people see what I am doing!

 

[Pinkie-Dawn]

Depends on what I'm seeing on my screen. If it's something NSFW, then I try to quickly minimize it or change into a tab that's SFW.

 

[starseed galaxy auticorn]

For me, it depends. I'm very panicky when people watch what I write on my iPad. As for my laptop, not so much as I used to be. It really depends what I'm doing though too.
