I cannot find my TV remote anywhere! AAARRRGGHHH!

[Scout1071]

And I'm not feeling well. Just want to crawl in bed and watch some bad daytime TV before I fall asleep. It's just no fun without a remote.

I've torn my bedroom apart looking for it.

1. Velcro, my friend, Velcro---a strip on the thing, and it's

match on the TV.

That, and a second remote, since my dumb-ass husband always loses it.

2. Also, look under the cat. Mine likes to lay on it. Bastard!!! n/t

3. No cat, but I did check under my Boxer.

Still no luck.

4. Check the fridge, your car and the baby's sleeper. These are all

real places I have found my remote in. :hi:

6. That's so funny MrsG. I found my cell phone in the fridge one time!

Laughed my arse off.

7. It is funny when those things happen. I remember changing my

daughter's diaper when she was a newborn and finding it in the leg of her sleeper...go figure. and the poor thing couldn't do anything about it. :hi: We still laugh about that one.

5. Remotes need beepers on them.

Like wireless phones. :D

9. My TV has one of those-not that I have ever used it

Both of my TV's have a button you can hit to find the remote. Of course we don't use THAT remote we have to use the cable remote which SUCKS by the way.

10. Hell yes they need beepers. I'm calling out to it, why can't it answer?

i've torn thru everything. Last seen yesterday morning as I was leaving for work. Wondering whether my Boxer may have had something to do with it. He displays his displeasure in unique ways sometimes:

8. Do you have kids? If yes then you may never find it.

I must have had to replace at least 40 remotes over the past 20 years. Only to find some of them buried in sofas, chairs and toyboxes, whenever I had to move.

[Scout1071]

12. No kids, but please see post #10. nt

11. I know where you should look

the last place you had it

:bounce:

13. Check the refrigerator.

I find myself getting addle minded at times. I will put the remote in the fridge by accident until I look for it later. I can't very well change the channels with my Dr Pepper, now can I? I know. It's crazy, but you would be surprised where people absentmindedly lay the remote down. :shrug:

14. I once found a gallon of milk in a kitchen cabinet

actually I didn't find it an apartment guest found it....I can't really go into how that happened but rest assured there were many laughs about it.
