Give Me the Remote! or More Adventures at the Gym

Excuse me, ma'am, but are you trying to change the channel on that TV? You are? Oh, well maybe you should let me help. No, no. That button won't change the channel. That's called the power button. As you obviously haven't noticed, you've successfully turned off the TV you're trying to watch, as well as the two adjacent to it. Oh, this is your 14-year-old son on the treadmill next to you? Yes, maybe giving him the remote is a good idea. There you go, 2 out of the 3 are now back on. But look, your son changed the channel on yours. Congratulations. Of course, you missed the one that other people were actually watching. That one's still off. Yes, that's why that little old lady is giving you the stink eye. Well, if you give me the remote now, I can turn that one back on. Then we can avoid her coming over here and breaking out your teeth. On the bright side, you'd be able to borrow her dentures. Yes, I agree, giving me the remote is the right course of action. Enjoy your program.
