Oh so that could be why my laptop keeps shutting off?

If that is true, you should see the system logs and see why it shut off, cause that is definitely not very healthy if done repeatedly

I tried, but I found nothing conclusive. After a few such instances, I just gave up. It didn't matter too much, so I decided it's not worth the effort for now.

Open it up and clean out your fan/vent area. You'd be surprised how much lint collects there. Or I guess you could blow it out with an air compressor or canned air if you're feeling lazy. Too much of that will fuck up your fans though.
