You figure you could start some online shopping while that damn webpage tries to load. You attempt to open Amazon to order some snacks to get you through finals week. Waiting time has now increased to 15 minutes and your feelings have fully blossomed.

Everything is just swirling, that dreaded blue bar at the top of Safari is just a fourth of the way full, you're beginning to feel that heat in your face, and all you can think about is smashing your head through your computer.

Okay. That's it. It's been half an hour and the only thing you've accomplished is raising your blood pressure through the roof. Time to close the computer and take the L.
