Fun With Hubby
Mar. 12th, 2009 04:43 pmWhen I go to turn something off, I first turn it down all the way, then off.
I do this for car stereos, so you don't get your ears blasted out when you turn on the radio. And I do this for the portable heater I'm dragging around the house with me like a security blanket. I even do this for dimmer lights and even the odd ceiling fan whose electricity is controlled by a light switch. And yes, I've been known to turn the TV off at the source, since the remote only puts it in Stand By mode. And that's after turning down the volume, since you have to stand next to the speakers to turn it on manually because the remote can't turn the tv on unless it's in standby.
This drives Josh nuts.
See, when he turns something on he wants to know it's working now. He doesn't have time to turn the volume or intensity up, he wants immediate access.
And while I don't do all this on purpose to annoy him, I'm rather delighted that it does. *WEG*
