search tangent

When using an online search engine, you see something more interesting that causes you to follow trails unrelated to what you came to search for. Sometimes you forget what you meant to look up in the first place.

Pete: Did you find those instructions on how to make functional battle spears from old rake handles?

Me: Uh, no. Sorry. I went on a search tangent and forgot. But check out these pix of Britney.

Why am I searching random words on UrbanDictionary?

Most likely one of two reasons:
1. you're bored af
2. you have no life

But I guess there's always the third option...
3. finals

Now enjoy having wasted a good minute of your life typing in this ridiculous word that isn't a word and reading this stupid definition

Now I must use the word in order for this to be posted: Why am I searching random words on UrbanDictionary?

^Just ignore that okay?
