The bathroom door trick that saved my laptop from a coffee spill

Last week at a cafe in Denver I watched a guy sprint to the bathroom with his coffee and leave his laptop wide open on the table. So I started flipping my screen down every single time I get up, even for a second, and my friend laughed at me until a waitress knocked over a whole pitcher of water on his table. Now he does it too. Anyone else got a dumb little habit that actually saved your gear?

Did you see that waitress coming or was it a total surprise? I do the same thing with my screen but I also slide my coffee cup way off to the side first. Lost a keyboard to a soda once in college and that was enough for me.
