My wife says I'm a child, which I take as a compliment.

It all started when I received my new TVBEGONE remote control.

It's a littel gadget, the size of a remote for a car alarm. The beauty of it is, that it shuts off any TV, w/o casuing harm to them.
I have been playing a prank on my kids for about a week now and they are going bananas.

"Dad, there's somethng wrong with the TV's they keep turning off by themselves". LOLOLOLOL

Like I said, my wife thinks I'm a child. So last night, I decided to turn off all the TV's at the local Ruby Tuesdays. It was pretty hilarious wwatching those guys go back and forth turning them back on. Not to mention the 4 or 5 patrons who were actually watching the NC/Virginia game.

I didn't do it too often(2 times) because I know they're working trying to make a buck.

However, at some point I will go into a sound advice and do it.

At that point, my wife will call me an *******. , as I am sure some of you will also.

Why not stop over at a "Best Buy" or "Circuit City" and report back on how it goes.

Try not to "ROTFLMAO"

I think its a great idea.

I don't agree with your wife.

I will at some point. Will keep you posted.

BTW, I am painting my car soon. Do youhappen to know what color the plastic part on the door handles would be? Are they the same as the car? Should they be flat black like the mirrors?

Two friends of ours lived across the street from each other, lets call them couple A and couple B. Couple A had just bought a new TV with remote, this was just when remotes became popular. Unbeknownst to them couple B had bought the identical TV and used to sneak across the street and change couple A's channels on them in secret. It was hilarious since some of us knew what they were doing and couldn't keep a straight face when we where visiting and the TV would suddenly go haywire. They finally came clean when couple A was going to return the TV.

The fellow of couple B that pulled this prank used to keep track of mileage on his truck and often try different tuning things to improve it. So in retaliation couple A would sneak out once a week and add a little gas to his tank. Fellow B couldn't contain himself about how some of his tuning tricks and newfound driving habits where improving his gas mileage. After a few weeks of this they would siphon a little gas from his tank. The following week they would add a little, and so on. Every week we would get to hear a new theory on how he was trying to explain his varying gas consumption. It was hilarious!

About once or twice each month I secretly use a second remote and change the channel to 66 when my Dad is in the middle of a good? movie. When his temper reaches the berzerk level I tell him he has the tv from hell. Now if I could only bring up that third 6.

All liberals are mattoids but not all mattoids are liberal.

I want a remote that forces cell phones to drop calls immediately. I'd hook it up to my car battery and somehow make sure it was on all the time. So many idiot talking drivers here.

I desperately want one of these myself.

Shut up and drive.

CELLPHONEBEGONE! There's an idea.

I'd like to see a restaurant have a scrambler in it and advertise it.

"We'd like to inform you that in consideration of our customers, loud talking on cell phones and loud ringers on cell phones will not be tolerated. Hence, we have purchased a scrambler that will block any and all cell phone signals inside the restaurant. You are more than welcome to go inside your car and scream at the top of your lungs about how many fine *****es are up in here this evening" Go fock yourself, AHOLE!

The cell phone blocker is already on the market: http://www.globalgadgetuk.com/Personal.htm

Damn, I would love to own one of them.

But, at $300. plus shipping.............................................

Maybe Plantman will buy it and loan it to me.

It's a bit steep at 300 plus.

That would be soooooo sweet

One year in college I lived in something like a converted motel, think cheap student ghetto housing. Two sisters lived in the next room and were incredibly religious and annoying. They would wake up a 5:30 and start singing hymms or start arguing over stupid stuff. The walls were of course paper thin.

I found that one electrical outlet in my room was on the breaker for their room. About once a week I would load up the outlet with everything I could plug in and trip the breaker. Sweet silence till about 7am

I'd pay for one that works on cellphones.

It's an old story now, but yesterday a secty here at work got rear-ended (er, her car was hit from behind) but some dip$hit on a cellphone not watching traffic. Oh, with a directional antenna! That would be especially cool.
