Happens to me constantly, so I'm trying to coin a word for it.

The worst is when you Hide a sub, and then think of something to say.
That happens to me less often, but I hear you. Maybe there could be a word for that, too.

"There doesn't appear to be anything here."
I do that a lot, but with the "next" link at the bottom of the page..
Same. It's worse when I'm on the iPhone using Safari. The link sometimes is gone when I press back because the page reloaded with the link I wanted being pushed to the next page.

Chrome and Firefox- middle click the back button to open it in a new tab! Get where you're going and go back to where you've been AT THE SAME TIME!
holy shit! I needed to know that a long time ago.
Herein lies my problem.
Because I use mousegestures for the majority of my browsing, and because I often do this very quickly, I find myself 2 or 3 pages and several tabs removed by the time my mind realizes that there some something else damned interesting on my original page. I'd have to open several closed windows, and carefully backtrack in hopes that I can find it.

Indeed.
I do this on every 5th page. Close tab NO WAIT what was that I just saw Ok close again. I guess our attention spans are so less we are in a hurry always.
Also, when you are looking at the frontpage and hit refresh, then just as you hit it you see a submission you like the look of. You go to click it just as it disappears, then you desperately search for it on the frontpage only to find it's gone.
The submission that got away... =[
When this happens to me I hit the forward button. What's everyone else's problem?
