calling a remote a clicker makes you sound older than him lolll
17 u/grendel303 3d ago Old remotes used sound instead of light, hence the term clicker. A button would make a sound and the tv would interpret that sound as a command. 13 u/RoboPup 3d ago That's pretty cool. I would've assumed it's because the buttons make a clicking sound. 2 u/PoopieButt317 1d ago I am 72. How long ago was this EVER a real thing? No. Not sound activated. Such gullible up voters. 2 u/JoeyJoeJoeSenior 1d ago Google it - it was real. My grandparents still had one in the 90's. 1 u/grendel303 1d ago edited 1d ago Never to old to learn something. https://www.theverge.com/23810061/zenith-space-command-remote-control-button-of-the-month
