I remember as a teen I'd go on Digg and open all the articles in separate tabs so that by the time I was done reading the text ones some of the images would be loaded on the ones with pictures. We've come a long way.

Oh, you had tabs! We had to use new browser instances! Uphill, in the snow!
Seriously though, I still do this out of habit, as it's just how I like to read. Skim a front page, open all the articles in tabs, and then go back and peruse them.

I remember when Internet Explorer 7 released with tab support. I'd been using Firefox since 1.0 (something like 5 years at that point?)
He whisked me over to his laptop and started opening tabs, before looking at me like he was the first man to discover fire
When I responded "oh, I've had that for years" he looked genuinely shattered at my reaction
