I also find myself looking up stuff that I hear or see on the tube, and spend more time on my laptop than watching whatever it was that distracted me in the first place. :D
Yeah, I’ve been watching a TV program and during the endless commercials forget what it is I’m supposed to be watching. That’s when I flip to another “program” that is only showing commercials.
I had a friend who would listen to someone brag about their latest gadget. When they were finished, she would simply ask, “Does that make you a better person?”

I takes me a while to read my gocomics; the comments grab my attention and then I’m off on an information-tangent.
