What's wrong? I realized something... TV remotes... Telephones. These things used to be so simple. Now, they're just needlessly complex. And you realized... What? I think they're trying to weed out the week.
Wow…two strips today with sort of the same theme. Ben and this one saying there’s too many buttons on remotes/technology is becoming too complex. What are the odds of this?
I feel the same way about video game controllers. I grew up with a Commodore 64 which had a joystick with one button. Now gaming systems have controllers with multiple button. It just turns me off trying to remember which combination does what.

So I guess I do hate technology

90% of people only use 10% of the features. ON/OFF, change channels, volume.
