multitabbing

The internet phenomenon, in which one opens up multiple tabs such as social networking sites, Word Docs for homework, Youtube, etc.

If multitabbing occurs while a student attempts to finish homework, they will end up procrastinating and are likely to die painfully.
Student:

"I was multitabbing last night while I was trying to finish my term paper...and I didn't finish. I'm probably going to die."

Multitabbing

This is an action or ability or addiction whereby an individual who, to the annoyance of many, has multiple internet browser tabs open at once, usually 5 or more and often upwards of 15-20 and often for weeks on end. These individuals believe that they will, at some point in the next 12-24 hours, be able to browse the contents of each tab they have open and are irritated if the tabs are closed or "gone over" by a family member. More often than not, the individual either copies the tab links into an e-mail they hope to be able to find later or they close the tab reluctantly, realizing after 14-21 days that they will simply not have the time or that the contents of the link aren't interesting enough after all.
My day begins and ends with multitabbing.

multitasting 

The practice of mixing odd flavors in the mouth simultaneously. Some examples of multitasting include eating a piece of citrus fruit too soon after brushing one's teeth, taking a hit off a beer while also chewing gum, or sucking on a breath mint while eating a wasabi-laden sushi roll.

While it is most often a manifestation of absent-mindedness, multitasting has also been deliberately practiced by people who 'just don't give a fuck.' These brave intentional multitasters have inspired humanity for generations innumerable. Kneel before Zod!
Did you see that chick? She just popped a piece of gum in her mouth, chewed it like three times, and then downed half a diet soda. And now...I think...yes!...she's back to chewing the gum! What is this fucktardation?

That's called multitasting, and it is rather odd. But did you know that both the chewing gum and the soda contain a chemical poison called aspartame, which should never have been approved by the FDA?

No, do tell!

Well, it just so happens that Aspartame was passed despite FDA scientists' disapproval by none other than douche nozzle extraordinaire, Donald Rumsfeld.

According to a G.D. Searle's salesperson, Patty WoodAllott, Donald Rumsfeld stated "he would call in all his markers and that no matter what, he would see to it that aspartame be approved this year."

An interview with consumer attorney Jim Turner revealed how Donald Rumsfeld "called in his markers" as part of Reagan's transition team in 1981. This is why G.D. Searle felt compelled to reapply for aspartame's approval one day after Reagan's inauguration.

This is despite rejection of aspartame over brain tumors.

What a bunch of sweethearts, huh? I wish asshats Rumsfeld and that stupid band 311 would all go die in a fire.

multitasking 

A nice way to say that you're doing many different things at the same time. And since no one can divide by 0, that means you're doing many different things half-assed.

Word of the Day on November 3, 2026
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
