Clicker or a Zapper

[Hatterlovesbrighton]

What is your alternative name for the remote control.

I say clicker but my girlfriend says zapper.

 

[Easy 10]

Neither. I call mine Barry.

 

[Bakesy]

Neither. I call mine Barry.

Mine are called "the buttons"

Neither - we say "where are the buttons?", "pass the buttons please" and usually....the F***ING BL**DY BUTTONS AREN'T WORKING" and the like...

You mean you are actually allowed to use one? I thought they were for female use only?

She uses the planner on Sky, then sets it onto auto-change for the programmes. She puts the fabled "clicker" down her cleavage and then lays on it and is usually asleep in seconds so I can't change channels. If, by some miracle, I change channels, I am harangued with "I was watching that", no matter how heavily she was snoring previously.

I am doing something wrong, obviously....

In most cases she tends to find very poor romantic comedy's as opposed to sky sports ect. I would be happy to relinquish my control over the remote if she was going to find something worth watching.
