Your remote was kidnapped and murdered. You will find it buried under your neighbor's driveway.

this happened to me last night. i found it in the refrigerator.

in one of the empty six-pack slots in the cardboard packagaing

if that turns out to be true i will paypal you 1x hoegaarden

Your remote is in the GARAGE!! Isn't that AMAZING!!! How could I have KNOWN THAT!!!!?????

Jess, u gotta get out of Jersey man.

yes, between the couch cushions/next to the couch arm where it slided off is the place I find mine 90% of the time. (other 10%: next to the toilet or fridge)

The ancients were smart, they had remotes with cables.

i don't have a garage! it's an apt actually.

not that it couldn't be in a garage, somewhere, at this point.

xp i'm going to have to clean my place top to bottom aren't i.

I had one of those remote-w/cable on my first VCR!

Everyone kept tripping on the cable, and the VCR would JUMP off it's shelf and BITE THEIR ANKLES!

under a pile of newspapers is the only answer

A friend of mine said like six years ago that he wanted a gadget you cd attach to all important things like keys, remote, pack of cigarettes, and the control pad wd be wired to your wall by the front door and you could "page" your items. SURELY someone has done this by now?

many xposts:

don't i know it, sister

Is it in the dungeon? 'Cos that's where I always find mine.

Does it work from there?

i'm fairly certain i've taken a remote control into the bathroom with me before

Did you look in the bin?

does your fake dog have it?

no i did not look in the bin!

when i was a kid, my mom had a "loyal keychain" that would beep if you whistled a particular series of notes. we could never get it to work even if it was sitting on the table in front of us and we were all whistling at it. but it went off in church all the time, or if like the radio was on.

nice work, inventor dude. you suck.

Have you tried the "not looking for it any more, just giving up and sitting down and lazily casting my eyes around until it magically appears where I've been looking all the time" approach?

My money's on the kitchen. That's where mine always ends up.

I can't believe clapper technology hasn't been introduced to remote finding.

Wouldn't that make looking at TV shows, live concerts, anything with applause kinda impossible?

(and no, the clapper function cannot be turned off in that case, because we'd only forget to turn it on again & lose the remote just as easily)

wait wait: clapper = finds remote; remote = controls tv

you could clap all you like and not affect the tv, as i understand this schema.

check the trash can, i throw mine away sometimes

yes, but applause on TV = remote thinks you're looking for it, and it starts beeping! (xpost)

there are always compromises in life

so why doesn't applause on TV send your clapper lights into beserk mode?

It doesn't? Good question, then.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

guess i'll check the kitchen, then.

and then, EVERY OTHER ROOM again.

ctrl+f

I found my remote the other day in a little drawer in my coffee table. Do you have a little drawer in your coffee table?

Very dangerous poll, this. If it isn't in the kitchen, then we have proof that democracy doesn't work.

My money's on the fruitbowl.

I'll know where to look if I break into your house then.

it was stuffed in a chair, btw. in the living room. about 6' from the tv.

thank you for your participation in this matter.

you idiot
