I forgot to superglue my BAEC card to my forehead so its doubtful people would have noticed that I was a FF.

Oh come on. Really? People on flights are now looking for role models in other passengers?
So you're saying that their thought process would go something like this:
Newbie: Wow, a big shiny plane. I'm scared. What, for the love of God, do I do?
CC Announcement: Please watch the safety video
Newbie: Oh good, voices in my head telling me what to do. I'll watch the safety video.
(a few seconds later)
Newbie: Oh no, there's one or two people who
aren't paying attention to the video. They must be frequent fliers so I'll copy them, instead of watching that video the crew have told me is important.
Are you really suggesting there are people like that on board?
