Post a Picture that Makes You Laugh

I can't be certain Captain, but you might have approached the dock a little quickly.

I'm thinking of doing this for my wife.

We've had the same TV and sound system since 2010 and she still fumbles around with the buttons on the remote, complaining about it doesn't work when the problem is she just starts pushing buttons. Her 90 year-old mother is even worse...
In defense of my wife, our "WebOS" remote and menu is a disaster. If you push the mute button twice, you get a nasty prompt to reset your hard work disabling the nasty picture "enhancements" that ruins the image quality. When it powers up, it goes to the menu and not where you were, and the means back to OTA channels keeps moving around. The remote menu button seems to be wearing out. With hundreds of trash channels, the "favorites" button is important, but there is no such button on the phone app remote. A lot of technology is pile of dysfunctional crap, that is only usable if you know every counter intuitive feature and never make a single miss step.
 
, perhaps the smell of fried motor windings…

Fresh Oranges. That’s what we used to call the smell of burnt voice coil or transformer windings back in the 80’s rave days. When everything was ”fresh“ and fried amps/speakers were common. “Smells like fresssssssh oranges” = “you need a recone”.

I also had a college roommate who liked to burn incense. Retaliation for that was 10 ohm resistors. Bought them from Digikey by the ton.
