Fair but anyone in the creative field back in those days was off their nut on LSD. The one at the top looks like some kind of magic mushroom land and that tree god thing... oh its just me...

It was more explictly aimed at kids in those days too.

An adult grabbing a coffee and muffin on the way to the office can do that in the bottom image. You'd feel like a sex offender sitting in the top one reading your emails over a latte.

For some reason I can't imagine a sex offender reading their emails over a latte. I suppose they must do, but in my head it's all handwritten notes, dirty tracksuits and raincoats, and CRT monitors. I think my mental image of a sex offender might be someone who only actually makes sense in the top image.

A lot of criminals are entirely normal people in their day to day life and you wouldn't suspect a thing.
