What do you call your remote control? I call mine...
 
Well, I noticed that ppl call there remote controls different shit. So I decided to set out to find out what others call thers. I call it the clicker. My cousins call it a flipper (flip through channels), and the changer. I've also heard, the remote, the controler, the pusher, the switcher... and thats all I can think off. What do you call it? :]

Mine is the "Flicker".

At University a friend called his the "Frank." As in Zappa.

Another friend referred to his as The Power.

Another couple of friends in a double room taped their three remotes together and the result was named The Beast.
