Ironically, only when you're not wearing one. I'm a cyclist and I always wear my helmet.
I remember seeing a T-shirt once with two pictures: a brain-injured person in a hospital bed being spoon-fed by a nurse, and a helmet. The caption: YOUR CHOICE.

I think the solution to all your problems is Internet Explorer 6, since it has no tabs.

While you have a point, the result would simply be multiple instances of IE6!

No, I think Thaddeus is right!
If you restrict yourself to IE6 you'll soon go off this Internet thingy; it's only a fad anyway!

Now there's a harsh pill to swallow.

I do the same thing. Sometimes I even go so far as to copy them into an email and send them to myself with a subject along the lines of "Interesting, read these!" And you guessed it, never do. At some point I mark the mail as read/done using Inbox.
At the moment, I don't have anything interesting open, although HTC announcing the first native blockchain phone[^] makes me scratch my head. I think they are just going with the hype for publicity.

I do that too! But at work, I have an email bookmarked called "tabs!" (why not "Links!" I don't know) of all the internal webpages needed for doing a remote build, queuing a release, adding the release to and SDLC request, submitting a ticket for a new job, the internal test tool for the third party software we use, etc. I actually refer to that list three or four times a week!

Bookmark 'em! You can even set up separate folders to hold the bookmarks by subject.
Then you can ignore even more things you want to read as bookmarks don't take as much screen space or memory. I do!

That requires learning how to use bookmarks. I'm quite serious.

See the little star to the right hand end of the address bar? Click it!
(There's also a "Bookmark Manager" in the "three dot menu" but you almost never need it.)
And ... if you are signed in to Google, your bookmarks are preserved and shared across all the Chrome apps you run - so my bookmarks are synced between the desktop, WookieTab, Nexus 7, and the phone.

Isn't it completely annoying how bookmarks work completely differently in a different browser. Seriously since a previous version of IE not sure which one. I have completely given up on bookmarks/favorites as a way of keeping track of sites.
I have a list of old favorites from like 8 years ago that gets imported in each new browser install. I never use any of them anymore. Sometimes when I go to one of them it is a dead link or dead site. geocities anyone.
I sometimes copy and paste into a OneNote notebook for reading later and weirdly enough I sometimes do read them at night when I need ot go to sleep.
Yep cannot use bookmarks at all.
To err is human to really mess up you need a computer

This of it as using a .txt file that you never lose. The best is when you finally get time to go back and dig through your old bookmarks and they don't work anymore because the website has been changed or is no longer around.

That's gotta be using a TON of memory
You DO realize that you can book mark all these pages?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

You forgot the word SH*T in your comment. I've used a simple ton of memory in Chrome with only 5 tabs open.

Egads!!!
I can barely handle 4 or 5 tabs at the same time.
I'd rather be phishing!

I bookmarked your post, so I can refer back to the links at a later time.
By this afternoon, I will have forgotten I did this.
Next week I will be searching with Google for the information contained in the links I just bookmarked.

I currently have just over 30 tabs pinned in Chrome.

I caught myself doing this many years ago and decided to stop because it became a pain to move the links between work and home. I then started bookmarking them and then I ran into the previous problem again so I started compiling the bookmarks into simple webpages. That's what I do now. If I find a link that is interesting I copy and paste it into my little webpage and I keep them in a path that I backup to my flashdrive and that has simplified things for me considerably.
It turns out I have been doing this kind of thing for almost twenty years now. Imagine my surprise when I get on W10 machine for the first time and aim Edge at my little webpage and does not render correctly. This is a simple HTML file that has a table with two columns, a banner image, and a background image and it will not render at all.
