vent, not - just lol 

every now and then I'm reminded that my advisor doesn't understand the contept of tabs

like, tabs in your brower, or in a pdf reader, etc.

he'll click on a link or file or something, it'll open in a new tab and he just goes "where it is?? i must have too many things open let me close stuff"

and I don't even know what to do with that
like me and the other grad students have tried and it simply does not go into his head that tabs are a thing lmao

@Eon H-how... tabs have been a thing in browsers, in numerous programs, for like a decade at this point...

vent, not - just lol 

@Taylor I don't even know...

like, me and every other student has pointed and explained and tried,
and then the next day it's right back to 0
