B) Giving up and opening a new tab because the above was futile.

Something that fails miserably to meet expectations. Originates from the hijacking of a Mexican airplane on September 9, 2009, in which a plane was hijacked by a group who claimed to have a bomb but instead had an empty box wrapped in brown paper.
I though Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull would be good but it sucked. It was a Mexican Hijacking.

"Hey Josh, your printer is spitting out an image of a woman getting boned by a horse!"
"Jesus, I'm a victim of printer hijacking!"
"Haha, gotcha!"
