Tab-Hop

The act of rapidly switching between multiple browser tabs, each running separate AI/GPT/Chat sessions, to simulate the productivity of an over-caffeinated think tank. A digital power move used by engineers, researchers, and chaos-loving polymaths to multiply AI output without melting down their own brain.

Origin:
First coined in 2025 by a rainforest-dwelling tech veteran who discovered that with enough browser tabs and GPT threads, you could basically LARP as a one-man DARPA.

Related Terms:
* Prompt Jockey – someone who rides AI prompts across multiple sessions like a rodeo cowboy.
* Context Siloing – isolating ideas across threads due to stateless session memory.
* RAM-Juggling – trying to mentally track which thread is doing what because you didn’t name your chats properly.

Pro Tips:
* Always label your threads so future-you doesn’t have a breakdown.
* Pin critical sessions like you’re building a command center.
* Just don’t ask the cocktail bot for help with your Kubernetes YAML.
"I had five projects due and one brain cell left, so I started tab-hopping like I was running an AI blacksite."

Race the tab

A fun driving game. It involves being a short to moderate drive away from home or your destination (30-45 minutes, 45-60 if you want to play at a higher difficulty), taking a tab of LSD and then driving to your destination.

The objectives of the game are
1. To make it home before the acid kicks.
2. To leave as little time between arriving home and feeling the tab as possible. If you start tripping the second you get out of the car you have pitched a perfect game.

This can be done with mushrooms, MDMA, DXM, pills or even DMT (if you live super close).

There are multiple tactics that you can use for racing the tab. You can speed which will likely get you there sooner, but also increases the chances of a traffic stop which is (obviously) bad news. Some people like to drive 5-10mph under the speed limit which will make you less likely to be pulled over, but more likely to start tripping behind the wheel. The best method in my opinion is to find a happy medium here.
1:
Dion: Bro I got us some primo orange gold flake gelatin LSD to take at the theater!
Dan: Holy shit, dope!
Dion: The only problem is that it takes like an hour to hit. So the movie will be halfway over by the time we feel it.
Dan: Dude let’s race the tab and take it right before we leave, that way we it kicks in right when Toy Story 3 is starting!

2:

Gino: Bro, yesterday was sus. I got pulled over on my way back from Electric Forest with two tabs of leftover blotter on me! I had to race the tab and made it home literally 30 seconds before I started to trip!
Dan: Holy shit, a perfect game! Good thing you didn’t get pulled over on your way to Electric Forest huh?
