Remote Control Watch
First week in Halls and the resident attention whore starts telling people that there's been poltergeist activity in her room. A spoon had been seen on the floor and then later it was on the bed or something equally unexplainable. Anyway, she continues to make these claims whilst I was having a cuppa with her in her room. Feeling like a wind-up I switched her telly on with my the remote control on my Casio watch (only about £40 a worth every penny). Having blatantly made up the spoon prank she starts to panic after the telly swithces itself back on, has problems with the volume and starts changing channels. Now, this only happens when i'm in the room but this correlation didn't seem to matter to her one-track mind. She then invited as many people who could fit into her room to witness the spectacle as she barked out commands to obedient television. She even used her mind to speak to the ghost by imagining what channel she wanted it to change to. I picked one at random and she declared to the room that she had indeed thought of that one. One of the more-fragile-minded international students from Greece left the room and ran down the hall yelling. I then revealed my watch to everyone and noted how I was suddenly the hero and Mrs Attention Whore was the twat. I can't help thinking that she was wrong in not speaking to me for the rest of term. I made her the talk of the halls which is essentially what she wanted.

My friend Anthony
had one of those watches when we were at college. He used to wait til someone was watching a video in the library with headphones on and then slowly crank up the volume till their ears bled.

I believe he got banned from Rumbelows for randomly switching their display TVs on and off.
