Mum: The tv remote doesnt work
Dad: go get more batteries
Brother: omg just give it to me *bashes the shit out of it and it works*
Dad: WHY NOT JUST REPLACE THE BATTERIES?!!? We will need to anyway! They are DYING!!
Me: omg just shut up everyone
Mum: The tv remote doesnt work
Dad: go get more batteries
Brother: omg just give it to me *bashes the shit out of it and it works*
