My life is filled with never-ending moments of button pushing.
There is always another button to push!
When I was a kid the only button I ever pushed was my Mother’s!
Maybe you turned on the TV with a button, if you didn’t have the switch type.
Everything had a switch!
Now, it’s buttons on the TV remote, computer, air-conditioner, rice-cooker, hot-water thermos, laundry machine, bank machine, phone, blah, blah, blah, …….
The worst for me is: the heaters in my place.
No central heating, so I have kerosene heaters that need reassurance that I am still conscious every 2 hours.
The warning music is painful; the physical act of getting up and pushing those damn buttons makes me feel like a rat in one of those lab experiments.
If the heater gave me something when I pushed the button, other than heat, it would be better!
Maybe a peanut or two would be nice.

Funny blog! Well, buttons might be a pain, but I’ve read about a time not too far back when people actually had to do more in life than lift their finger. Getting your ass off the couch every two hours to push a button really isn’t that bad if you think about it LOL.

I have an easy button… something from Staples office store. Every time you hit the big red button with easy on it, a voice says “That was easy!” Good fun.

Finicky Penguin: I have one of those as well. It sits on my desk at work and gets pushed by little kids about a million times a day.
Kelly Pettit: Are you saying I am lazy?
