Repent

[scriver]

The only tabs I clear are the dozens of one-time google searches

[ChairmanPoo]

Repent fornicator!

[pisskop]

repent, pontificater!

I have one or two of those at a time, but if you've somehow accumulated hundreds of them you should either get to organizing them or forgetting them because you're clearly gaining things to read faster than you can read them and thus will never get to them all. At least if you bookmark them all in a "read this once" folder they won't eat up memory.

Holy shit. I just realised, I accumulate tabs much like I accumulate books.   

Also yeah, I use the "save all tabs to a bookmarks folder" option now and then before closing them all, but then I have to deal with the guilt hit for taking that option instead of just getting around to everything. Lessee how many of those folders I have so far... seven. I can't see when each folder was created, but I've been accumulating them for a while now.   
And do you think I ever actually cracked one open to look at those bookmarks before now? Nuh-uh. Not a once. Oh gods I need to start doing that.

*is a product of a bygone era.  Keeps at most 10 tabs; Culls aggressively once it reaches that size.*

What's wrong with bookmarks kids?  Bookmarks don't stay active, running scripts, and doing who knows what like they own the whole browser session.

I was meaning, that within the confines of a browser session, I will only allow up to 10 tabs to be open.

Not that I have my browser retain those tabs on closure.

I too, flush all tabs on closure.

But what if you have shit loads of tabs and bookmarks?

That's what I do, is it weird or something?

[pisskop]

i do have loads of bookmarks.  just not tabs

Slow news day apparently.

A 54-year old construction worker died of a heart attack the other day, and it was suspected that his licorice habit had something to do with it. He ate a bag and a half a day, apparently, and a chemical - glycyrrhizin - in black licorice (that he recently switched to) can cause a drop in potassium and increase in blood pressure, if consumed in large quantities.

There was a section on it on Good Morning America today, and I can only describe what I saw as fear-mongering. They brought up the guy dying (mentioned his habit) and had a doctor saying even in small quantities it can be a problem, especially if you’re prone to high blood pressure, and OMG it’s in other things like tea and other candy too and OMGOMGOMG it’s Halloween soon so there’s lots of this candy for sale stay safe out there folks.

5 minute section, bloody ridiculous.

[delphonso]

In short, don't eat a bag and a half of candy every day you fucking animals.

I remember a similar story, it was some guy that ate several bags of popcorn a day, I think his death had something to do with him immediately huffing the popcorn bag as soon as it finished cooking.

[Enemy post]

Oh hey, I remember that popcorn-huffing guy.

There was also a woman who got a bone disease from drinking too much tea. Tea has fluoride in it, so drinking a lot of it can cause fluorisis. So beware your cuppa.

... Yeah ok, this particular woman was brewing something like 6 pots of strong tea with 15-20 tea bags in them per day and chugging that down. So if you're using 100 tea bags a day, maybe cut down a bit.
