It is what happens when you watch an embedded YouTube video on another site and then watch a couple dozen related videos that are displayed after the previous video completes. The rabbit hole effect is only encountered after at least an hour has passed and you regain your sense of temporal awareness. This effect usually is followed by, "How the fuck did i get to this video?"
"Dude, I was watching the Macho Claw mod video and an hour later, I realized that I'd watched at least 10 videos about My Little Ponys without remembering how I got there. The YouTube Rabbit Hole is a dangerous thing."

Get the youtube rabbit hole mug.This is ALWAYS the answer to any "why" question asked to a technical support engineer.
The initial answer to ANY why question is ALWAYS, "Because fuck you, that's why".

Support Engineer: "Bro, I had this guy who kept asking why we don't document changes in the VPN client."
2nd Support Engineer: "What did you tell him? I get that question all the time"
Support Engineer: "I gave him the Roma answer.... For some reason, I got a negative survey score on that one. Go figure."

Get the The Roma Answer mug.SLOP = SLack Object Permanence. This is the concept where in any large chat tool like Slack, you are inundated with so much information on an hourly basis, you forget where you saw a specific topic posted or, in some cases, that the topic was even mentioned.
The concept of "Object Permanence" can be seen in infants where when they see something, in their brain, it now exists. However, when the object is hidden from view, the object ceases to exist.
So, after you read a post in Slack or Teams or whatever, it becomes SLOP. It no longer exists.

Bob: "Hey Chuck, where is that document thread in Slack that the VP wanted us to review?"
Chuck: "Dude, its right here in the #crap-you-forgot channel in Slack!"
Bob: "Sorry man, it got dumped into my SLOP bucket"
