ZaLiTHkA8418yYeah, that shortcut doesn't only reopen the last tab, it's everything closed in the last action. I use that when I end up with multiple Chrome windows and then I accidentally close the wrong one.

@sam21s yeah that does suck. :(
I think I'm the only one I know of who is obsessed with having open ONLY the tabs currently being read/used/switched between for accomplishing the task at hand. This means I basically almost always have only 1, 2, 3, MAYBE 4 tabs open at once, and the instant I'm done with that tab, I close it.
The exception to this is recursively opening pertainent links. Once I get to the last tab to be opened, I read/use it then close it and then do the same all the way back up to the first tab.
Yeh, I'm weird about open tabs.. same applies to Android Recent/open Apps switcher thing. All apps not being used in the current task shall be swiped away.

@jlave215 Ctrl+Shift+T ftw. And if it wasn't the tab that I JUST closed, it's not that hard for me to type like 3 chars of the url and hit enter on the auto complete. Doesn't happen often. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The saddest moment is when you mistakenly click "close all other tabs"
