I black-holed news.ycombinator.com on my work computer by adding it to my /etc/hosts file, but my subconscious compensated by going to news.google.com often enough that now ‘n’ + enter takes me there.

At some point in time I drilled this sequence into my fingers: ctrl-t, ne, ctrl-w i.e. new tab, start typing news.ycombinator.com, immediately interrupt myself and close the tab. These days I have hn mapped to 0.0.0.0 in my hosts file.
