What do you call the TV remote in your house?

Just some light lols while I'm moping in bed getting over a bug..

Some people have hilarious names for the telly remote

In our house it was the Zapper or the Button Presser

My nan called it the Wobbler

In my friends house it was the Bipper

The bleeper
It definitely used to bleep with every button push in the 90s

Doobry wotsit

DH calls it the zapperdapperdoodah and it drives me insane!

Hoofer doofet 🤪

Doodah 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

My cousin's always called it the dit dit.

In our house it's usually the "jobby". Although right now I keep calling it the "Buffy Bringer" to wind up DD. (She loves Buffy but has been putting off watching the last few episodes because shes convinced people will die and crying is anathema to a 16 year old.)

I wonder if that friend grew up to become my husband. He calls it a commander too! I thought it was really odd but now I say it and so do our kids!

It was a doobury in my house growing up.

'That Bloody Thing'. And I'm normally sitting on it.

Hoofer Doofer bloody auto correct lol

The Buttons

Slim shady 🤣🤣🤣

I'm also a doofer-er.

As I recall, it's short for hoofer-doofer from Noel Edmonds' telly addicts and was what I grew up with. Luckily DH grew up the same as my DC are now doing.

The Flicker

Always refer to it as the telly squirt, commonly abbreviated to the squirt Don't know why 😆.

The what??? This one had me in stitches 🤣

The Presser

It's the troller here

The hand of God

(Still do)

This

where does it even come from??? I learned it in Scotland

Frank (Zappa)

We call it the trolls

We call it 'the panel', as in the remote control panel. Does no one else call it this????? I thought it was pretty normal! It was the 'mote troll' for a while when kids were young.

Same here 😅

Ours is known as the mice & pigeons. My boyfriend (now husband) reckoned that pigeons flew to my ancient telly and told the mice that powered it what channel to change to. 😂
