I have done this, on occasion

Yeah, with me it's usually diseases.

I shouldn't watch House while on the laptop, probably.

I've paused House on numerous occasions to discuss plot points with Ed.

I've also occasionally run from the living room to the computer muttering "Non-specific anti-lustrous Shavington's Syndrome" under my breath so I don't forget it by the time I get to wikipedia :->

I used to do that, but I realised I was starting to look up everything all the time, and I gave up. Too much effort.

Frighteningly ...

... up until the Montana Mountain Goats, I'd already done all that (including reading a fair bit of the Canola Farmers of America website, or whatever it was called).

As I recall, they claimed that Canola was from the same common ancester but that Canola had been bred away from rapeseed ...

... I first looked this up because of a story about a reporter that found there were dozens of times more stories about "rape" in some of the UK rural areas than in some city areas ... and discovered it was stories about "rapeseed" crops (which I believe are one of the higher triggers for hayfever in the UK)

Oh yes, I've sooooo been there.

I often save a whole schmuckload of open tabs in my browser as a "temp" file just before I dash out the door for work. When I get home I try to "clear" them out.
