And they used to call ATMs, Versatellers.

reefer4200 · 03-13-2008, 01:26 AM

i knew thats how "clicker" started, but well we have flatscreens, hd, and blueray. Isn't it time to let go of "clicker" haha lmfao. I cant wait until its called something else and people make fun of me for calling it a remote in 10 years.

reefer4200 · 03-13-2008, 02:00 AM

o and yer avatar cracks me up.....

MOST of the time it's the remote, but clicker still gets in there sometimes, even though nothing clicks anymore.

When I'm really frustrated it's usually "I hate this g&%%d&%m thing," as Mike's theater setup has dvds running through a computer with PowerDVD and it works where he's here but if he's not teh f&%$%g thing decides it won't "mount" this or I can't get the *^% sound going or the *^%% movie my kid wants isn't in the "videos" folder on the *^%$% computer...

Now I'm frustrated again.

tbittner · 03-14-2008, 09:35 AM

That remote is awesome! It's going to have to wait though. Besides, with a large reef tank and RS, who has time to watch TV anymore?

CREEPIN · 03-14-2008, 09:37 AM

i call it a changer.. thats what my parents always called it, so it stuck

lcstorc · 03-14-2008, 09:44 AM

Well since we got a DVR it somehow morphed into the bloop bloop cause that's the sound when you fast forward through the commercials.
Before that it was remote.
You need to have an other in the poll.

haydenfish · 03-14-2008, 10:12 AM

We always called them remotes, even when they clicked. Before that my parents called them children. "Michael, go change the channel"

tippMANn98 · 03-14-2008, 10:24 AM
