People Share Embarrassing Zoom Fails After Student Accidentally Logs In With NSFW Name

There’s definitely a learning curve to learning on Zoom. Most people in college have learned to show up to class with pants on, but many of us are still getting familiar with having a camera looking into our bedrooms. Zoom fails, accidents, and weird mishaps are common and it doesn’t seem like any of us are going to get through this without some kind of embarrassment.

Twitter user @annemariemackey has just gone through hers. She posted about it on Twitter, writing in yelling capslock:

“IM GOING TO F*CKING SCREAM I JUST JOINED MY FIRST ZOOM MEETING LECTURE AND MY NAME CAME UP ON THE SCREEN AS ‘BIG T*TTY B*TCH’ FROM A F*CKING ZOOM PARTY WITH MY FRIENDS IN F*CKING APRIL.”

There was also photo evidence from a friend on the Zoom meeting who was watching Big T*tty B*tch make a grand entrance:

I’m curious is that the moment before or after they realized what their Zoom name read.

BTB isn’t alone in this type of mishap. People started sharing their own stories of inappropriate names showing up in classrooms, meetings, and pretty much anywhere they absolutely did not want them to be showing up. There were also accidental Zoom backgrounds and of course mistakenly turning themselves into inanimate objects with eyes, and don’t forget not checking if “mute” is active on your mic before cursing someone out

If you’re reading this, take it as a sign to check all your Zoom settings right now and never ever mess with them at Zoom Happy Hour.
