I was at college. I posted some controversial opinions that a beatnik friend of mine in another city had made on his diaryland page as the start page on one of the computers in the computer lab.
Then when I was leaving there this girl that was absolutely stunning, that was a professor's daughter, and that I had a class with rushed out and gave me a big hug and wanted to make sure that I was doing okay because she thought I had really been upset about 9-11. I gave her a hug back and was thinking "Oh, getting a big hug from you like this is really awesome but you work right outside that computer lab, well you're going to be seeing some comments I put on that computer that are going to throw a negative light on me in about two minutes."
And to make a long story short, I still think it cost me the greatest relationship I was ever likely to have and probably led to some other bad days.
