Similarly, there was one of those on one of the game boys back in the day, & there was a James Bond game that allowed you to use the transmitter on your Gameboy as a TV remote. I used to sit in the living room with my parents, who were completely unwilling to buy a new TV even though it absolutely stunk. So I’d just use my Gameboy to do random things like change the channel, tank or sky the volume, or turn the TV off altogether. They never figured it out & eventually bought a new TV because they suspected our existing TV was dysfunctional.

It was me. I was the dysfunction. My like 9 year old brain concocted this hair-brained plan to net the fam a new TV & it worked fucking perfectly. They still have no idea 🤷🏼‍♂️
