OK, so I like firefox. It's way better than IE, duh. I haven't tried
opera in a few years, but firefox has been good to me, except in this
one regard.

So, I'm at a page where I'm going to open up a bunch of links (> 10)
to read in separate tabs. I can do this with my wheel button or
holding down control and clicking normally. Either way works for me.
However, sometimes, for whatever reason, the internet doesn't work.
Most commonly, this is when the phone rings and makes my wireless die
as we have a 2.4 GHz phone, but other things have caused this problem
as well. So, after a while, firefox decides it's going to timeout all
of the tabs that I have opened that were in the loading state. "Fine,"
I say, "I'll just wait til the internet is back and then reload the
pages." So, the internet comes back, and I go to reload the page, and
guess what. The fucking tabs only hold onto url's after the page has
loaded.  The url's not in the address bar until after the page loads.

Well, fuck me in the goat ass. Whose fucking brilliant idea was that?
And after TEN SEPARATE TIMEOUT POPUPS, now I have 10 tabs open and no
url's in any of them. Half the time, I've moved on or closed the
original tab. Just fucking great. Now I have to dig through my damn
history, reopen the original document, scroll up and down the fucking
page looking for what I had open, and do a rain dance and sacrifice
whothefuckknows how many cows hoping it will work this time.

Just put the damn url in the tab you peice of shit. Fuck.

he was melting...
