Sick of Faux News everywhere? Turn it off with TV-B-Gone!

TV-B-Gone, a small television remote that hangs on your keychain and turns off virtually any television with the press of button. "Now, what would be the purpose of such a device?" you may be asking yourself. Well, without revealing too much of our devious nature we can think of a few things. Imagine sports bars or annoying talking head shows that appear on monitors at the airport. Add to that your own creativity and we're pretty sure you'll come up with some ideas. All you need to do is press the button and keep pointing it at the TV until it turns off (which may take up to 69 seconds). The next 69 seconds will be spent quietly, or not so quietly, enjoying the perplexed expressions of the TV automatons.

1. Thank you mr. Salesman Sir
I've been looking for new ways to annoy other people. I do a pretty good job posting here and driving people nuts, but how can I drive people nuts when I go out - well this seems like just the ticket.

3. Farting in small, crowded rooms also works well...
or flossing your teeth in the middle of a busy restaurant.

5. There's only one problem with that.......
if you turn off the tv, then there's an increased chance that the sheeples' will start talking :puke: .

8. God That's Stupid. Who Are These People That Are So Childish As To Not Be Able To Ignore A TV?
Some people out there need to get a grip.

9. gee ... a cheap remote from K-Mart
and carrying around the guide would help just as much ... and you could freak out the owners, done discreetly enough ... maybe put the TV on Lifetime or the Women's Network ...
