She's Welsh. Have to say, I'm Scottish (living in various parts of England for many years) and I've never heard a remote control referred to as "the buttons", it's usually just "the remote" in my experience.

-Shrug- We must operate in different circles. But then I live in a very anti-Americanisms family. The shit-storm that rises up if we use the word 'awesome' to describe anything other than a large and/or impressive object...

We don't call it the remote, we call it "the prodder"

Because you prod it.

Here in Stoke on Trent, a good portion of us call the TV remote a 'doofer'. 'Get me that doofer' was one of the things you'd hear the most off of my Granddad. But according to other nearby regions, 'doofer' can be applied to anything, so it's not like that and the TV remote are mutually exclusive.

I know quite a few folk who use "zapper" too.

The man's family call it "the box."

Extreme sniggering discomfort when his father asks me to explain how my box works, and which button he should press. "They're all so different," apparently.

You should have thanked him for setting such a sexually generous example for his son!

[halloweenjack]

Ask him how boxes work where he comes from, and can he draw you a picture.

[whitesycamore]

And yes, it is actually the remote itself he is referring to as the box, not the tv.

Which is weird, since the television is a very box-like object, and the remote really isn't. I've never got an adequate explanation out of him on the subject.

At least one family I know in New England calls it the "glunker." Presumably it goes "glunk" when you press it.
