The irony? That's actually the correct answer. Modern browsers, especially Chrome, are notorious RAM hogs that can easily consume 8GB+ with just a few tabs open. Each tab spawns its own process, and before you know it, you're running a distributed system just to keep your email and Stack Overflow tabs alive. Closing browser tabs is genuinely one of the most effective ways to reclaim memory on a modern system. The guy who got thrown out was the only one speaking truth to power.
Fun fact: Chrome's multi-process architecture was revolutionary for security and stability, but it turned browsers into memory-eating monsters. Firefox tried to shame them with less RAM usage, but eventually adopted similar architecture because, well, it works.
