"My Gran calls the remote control The Wisher" writes Kim, "and LA Law, Lah Law." Do you know any old people? Are they as inventive or creatively befuddled as this?

Just like eariler, my dad's not particually old, just a bit mad. Remote controls are "hoofer doofers". A while ago, I put them in some home cinema kit, so now M&D have 4 hoofer doofers, 4 "jobbers" (amp,DVD,vcr,tuner), a "thinger" (me mum wanted Mario Kart, so I gave her my old N64). And the like. I gave them some mp3'd CDs a while back, imagine explaining to them how to use them -
So these work in the DVD player thing, but not the stereo in the kitchen?
Yes mum.
Why?
Gnnn! I ended up buying her a mp3 boombox for the kitchen.
