What is it with men and remotes?? I mean, aren't they supposed to leave their Woobies behind when they grow up? R has always been a remote-hog, but since he's been home from the hospital, I swear that thing never leaves his hand. Actually, I'm surprised that it hasn't started growing to his hand! My favorite part is when he is sound asleep, completely and totally zoned out, and doesn't even hear me talking to him. I gently reach over and slide the remote out of his relaxed grip. WRONG! The hand spasmodically clenches shut, and he shouts (honest!) "I'm watching that! I'm watching that!" Needless to say, he doesn't even know what "that" IS--just don't take away the remote. Anyone else out there have the same problem??

LOL. Don't you know that the remote is a substitute for a man's, ahem, manhood? ;)
ReplyDeleteAh this does sound familiar. Great photo. Was he asleep when you took this one? Great cloud photo from yesterday too. TFS!
ReplyDeleteI hear you. My dad did , my husband does it and I'm sure my son will do it too, Luckily he's more into books than TV.
ReplyDeleteWow, he sounds just like my DH! Even when he's sleeping, I try to sneak the remote from him and he wakes right up! Sheesh!
ReplyDeleteOh YES... I have that problem too! Jason will be snoring away in his recliner and I will grab the remote off his lap to change the channel and he will sense it I swear! LOL!
ReplyDeleteAnd hey, we have the same remote! ;)
Too funny! No, I don't share that problem. My DH's woobie is his computer or game consoles.
ReplyDeleteROTFL!!! Hilarious Pat and soooooo true!
ReplyDeleteLove the little heart in your clouds too..great eye
Shannon :)
LOL Pat, too funny! Our problem is that we have too many remotes and that I don't know what they do or how to use them. The only one I can kind of work is the one for the TV, the other ones I don't even try to figure out.
ReplyDeleteSo funny! My DH will actually walk around the house with it.
ReplyDeleteOh girl don't even get me started. I refuse to watch TV with my dh or any of my ds you see it is hereditary in males. I don't think any of them has ever seen 1 complete tv show. They change it so much and so fast it gets me sick. Oh yeah and do not take it out of his hand because yes he is watching it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a funny shot, but oh so true! We sleep with the 'clicker', as we call it. I'm constantly rolling over onto it and worrying I'm going to turn the tv on at 3am. And, it's not me that puts it in the bed... :)
ReplyDeleteLOL how funny. and the great thing is that i dont have this problem. mine is actually trying to find the remote
ReplyDeleteMy DH is the same way! I even scrapped photos of him asleep with the remote:)
ReplyDeleteYES!!! I have one of those... he's always watching something! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteOh yes!! Know a lot of guys like that!! You are too funny!
ReplyDeleteLOL,, even in his sleep hu? My husband is like that to but I've never tried to take it from him. I will though.. to funny!! XOXO
ReplyDeleteLOL. . . same thing with my DH and the remote! Except he drives me nuts because in his sleep, he'll change the channels on the show I'm watching! I fear there's no cure for this.
ReplyDeleteOh so true! there is no coming between a man and his remote!
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with that! :o) lol
ReplyDeleteOh my word that totally cracks me up! My husband isn't much of a remote hog but he always turns up the tv too loud and it drives me crazy....SO...I got my own remote so I could turn it down. :P (evil...I know)
ReplyDeletePat - great shot. I just assumed this is a genetic thing / don't know a male who doesn't take seize of the remote and dictatorship of the TV.
