Luckily I found my remote in the trash can near my table, probably knocked over by one of my cats.

But it's amazing how lazy I can get about going over to the TV and change the channel. Just that pressing the channel (+), (-) button can get tedious when going from channel 53 to 3 =P.

Just though I'd share hehe.

Imagine if you had digital cable or satalite tv with 200+ channels. And you lost your remote and had to go to channel 207 and you were ony at channel 36.

My VCR remote has been MIA for about six months. I can't even change the f'ing clock for daylight savings. :|

I absolutely HATE it when I loose my remote. I just don't even bother watching TV, yeah I know I'm a lazy one.

<< It sucks when some TVs have controls that are only accessible through remote. >>



I know. Older TVs let you do everything from programming channels to setting the clock to setting a timer without the remote. Now, you lose the remote you're SOL. All my TV has is channel up/down, volume up/down, and power.

It sucked cuz I was watching rerun of Cheers on channel 53 the night before, and then the next night I wanted to watch Conan O'Brien on NBC (channel 3). I ended up missing half hour of it while looking for the darn remote.

FOR ME TO POOP ON!!!
