One who keeps multiple tabs open on their computer browser. Tab rats seldom close a tab and at times have so many open they slowdown or crash their computer. Confronted with unwanted audio playback they can have trouble finding the source as they sort through tab after tab. Analogous to a pack rat.
My mom the tab rat tortures her computer, never closing a tab on her browser while complaining about how slowly it runs.

Much the way we channel-surf on the TV or radio when we're bored, we also may be caught flipping from Facebook to Twitter to Pandora to UD. Hence tab-surfing. :)

Da key at da middle-left of your keyboard dat causes your computer tower to dispense a can of sugar-free soft drink when you hit said key.
Since Tab cola is no longer available in most stores, your computer's Tab key is often da only way besides mail-order to get some of said precious commodity.
