Don't you think the fact that it was submitted to /r/talesfromtechsupport implies that it was something of note, and that a handful of people offering of anecdotes of their own bizarre encounter with a tab hoarder support my claim that it's not the way most people use a browser?

My point is that you didn't say "it's not the way most people use a browser", you said that normal people don't "ever" use that many tabs. You made an overly absolute statement and I'm refuting it.

I concede that. But your initial use of "nobody" is also overly absolute.

That was someone else, not me.
