sorry, but i've just had an argument about this - i call it "the flasher". which to me seems like a perfectly logical name cos i sort of flashes when you change channels (and also you get great to say the best things, like "mum. leave the flasher alone!") what about you?

Well usually I call it 'THAT FU****G BOX' used in the context of "where's THAT FU****G BOX?????" but when I can actually find it I just call it the remote :roll: ............but flasher's good, yeah I like it :mrgreen:

Well it's called the "channel changer" by me!

 

I think it's quite logical (what does it do? change channels!!!) but anyone i ever mention it to just laughs at me :cry:

 

I also have a friend who calls it the "doofer" - i mean wtf? doofer?&^?$"?

(at least my name had logic)

hey guess what i call it the channel changer too

the name fits right

I call it "the converter"! I don't know where i picked it up, but whenever i say it...people laugh at me!! :cry: :puppydogeyes:

I call it "the converter"! I don't know where i picked it up' date=' but whenever i say it...people laugh at me!! :cry: :puppydogeyes:[/quote']i wont laugh at you :lol:

Thank You!! I really appreciate that! :butterfly:

my mate calls it the doofer too - what is up with that?

doofer?

 

thats funny where did that name come from? that word sounds like a dogs name no just kidding :smileyb:

zapper!

 

my family calls it a zapper

 

everyone laughs at us but i am proud of it :D

zapper's good actually :lol: , someone else i know calls it the dink-dink - which is entirely random.

one thing that i like about my channel changer is the television has a button you press if you lost your channel changer. When you press the button the channel changer lets out a beep and then you are able to find it. without that i wouldn't know what to do, because i loose my channel changer like every hour.

that's clever - we lost ours for about 3 months and it was in the dog's basket.

mines usually in the couch

mines usually hidden somewhere and then it takes me forever to find it :dozey:

Do people get in trouble for swearing on here? I see people are censoring themselves, or is it the message board doing that?

:huh: i usually just dont swear on boards like these cause little kids might read it or something...
