What makes me "Click"

I was watching the rerun of "CLICK" the movie in Astro, starring Adam Sandler. Below a short synopsis of the movie : credits to Wikipedia. 




Click is a 2006 American science fiction comedy drama film directed by Frank Coraci, and written by Steve Koren and Mark O'Keefe, and produced by Adam Sandler, and starring Sandler, Kate Beckinsale and Christopher Walken.
Sandler played an overworked architect who neglects his family and misses most of his life when he receives a remote control device that enables him to skip over unpleasant events.

I was wondering what would happen if I had the remote control. Wouldn't you want to get hold of one? I would want to do the following :

STOP : 


  1. War! ~ People should live in harmony. Why haven't they learned from all the wars? Why are people still hurting each other in this era & every era? When are we going to stop fighting? Whyyyy????
  2. Corruption ~ Can't people just be honest and live their lives with integrity and dignity?? They should be ashamed of themselves for accepting bribes or worse still requesting for one. Shame on you!!!
  3. Office politicking ~ People should just do their work and leave the politicking to the politicians? If you want to play politics, go join the politicians, leave the office alone!!! I despise office politics.
  4. Brown nosing bosses!!! ~ One should put in one's effort to get a promotion and not through brown nosing one's bosses. Credit should be given when work is put in, not apple polishing one's boss to get one's way. Shame on you bosses who submit to such lowdown tactics!!
  5. Abuses ~ whether it is human or animals, no one has the right to abuse another, I mean NO ONE!
  6. Suicide bombing ~ hey, if you need/choose to kill yourself....go bomb yourself in the hills, at the beach or at the cliff with NO ONE around.... no one else deserves to die just because you do! Period.
  7. Poverty  ~ this should be eradicated.
  8. Sickness ~ normal cough & cold is acceptable, to build immune system - that I understand. The others like Cancer, Kidney failures, Heart Attacks, etc should be removed completely from this planet! Totally!! It is disheartening to face, know, hear or see such things.
  9. Blindness ~ all mankind deserve to see what mother nature has given us...the colors of things in the sea, up in the sky and on land...endless color contrast that even technology sometimes have difficulty to emulate.
  10. Deafness ~ all mankind deserve to hear all the wonderful sounds that nature & technology has made & created for us...Its beautiful and oh so uplifting especially when one is awaken by the chirping of birds or the crowing of the cockerel or even to a song.
  11. Disabilities ~ everyone deserves to be able to enjoy their life. 
  12. Drug pushers ~ Just STOP them! 
PAUSE :

  • Suicide bombers ~ so that we can place him/her in an isolated place in prison or island far away from any human, then detonate the bomb separately. Let them live amongst themselves (suicide bombers) afterall, birds of a feather stay together, isn't it right?
  • Random killers ~ stop selling guns/remove the guns from these crazy killers who randomly kill people simply because they are disturbed or troubled. Hey, if you have a problem, go see a shrink or get help. If you seriously need to kill...go work as a helper at the slaughter house, that way, you get to kill daily. But seriously, you need HELP!!!
  •  Pimps ~ each time they seal a deal, replace the prostitutes with dolls. That way, the pimps get bashed up by their clients! See whether they can last long in the business...hehehehe....
DELETE : 
  • DEATH ~ all deaths are deleted, hence no one can recall that part...people just don't have that missing part. It will continue to be a mystery, so no sadness.
  • Sadness ~ no one deserves to be sad.
  • Pain & sufferings ~ we deserve better!
  • INFIDELITY ~ the cause of many break-ups....Stay true to the one you love. If you have lost that loving feeling, sit down and analyse what went wrong and for goodness sake, find a solution to resolve your problem, don't seek comfort elsewhere! Face your problem and take action.
SKIP :
  1. EXAMS!! ~no need explanations, right?
  2. EXERCISES ~ yet we remain slim / fit & healthy!!! YAY!!!
  3. IRONING!!! ~ all clothes should be made from wrinkled-free material. I ABHOR ironing!!!
  4. PROTOCOL ~ skip all those royalty & dignitaries protocol. We are all human beings differing only in blood type...no one has blue blood, do they? Ain't all blood...RED??? No?
  5. MEETINGS!!! ~ unless it is productive else forget all those boring, draggy, brown nosing meetings!! Have short productive discussions instead!

REWIND :

All things worth keeping / remembering / treasured.









FAST FORWARD :
  • SALARY ~ we work 1 month but get 2 months salary...aaahh, wouldn't it be nice?
RECORD :
  1. Successes ~ our promotions, children's graduations, etc
  2. Break throughs ~ eg innovations, creations, buildings, etc
  3. Happy moments ~ birthdays, weddings,trips, etc
MUTE :


  • ORATORS ~ Some people should be ban from public speaking...they can really put you to ZZZzzzzz. 
  • NAGGERS / People who repeatedly repeat themselves!!! 
  • BOSSes ~ especially those dominating and overbearing bosses....Ohhh, just SHUT UP, would you!! (don't you wish you could say that in their face???) *Yup, I saw that smile in your face when you read my last sentence...heheeehhhee*
  • Drilling/Renovation works ~ it drives everyone MAD!!
  • Firecrackers ~ especially when we need to ZZZZzzz
INCREASE VOLUME :
  1. Recovery ~ recovered fully from remission (cancer, for example)
  2. Successes ~ children's academic successes, promotion, etc
  3. Happiness ~ weddings, anniversaries, newborn, etc
  4. Mother Nature ~ all things created by nature.
HOLD :
  • ARGUMENTS ~ I dislike confrontations/arguments.
  • HATRED ~ learn to forgive and forget. Our little precious heart is too small to hold on to hatred. Learn to let go & free the pain in your heart. Save it for better things. You'll be happier.
  • LOVE ONES ~ And don't let go. Hold them close to your heart.
  • ANGER ~ hold on to your anger....walk away. Speak again when you have calmed down. In your anger, you may say words that is so hurtful, there is no return. Or worse still, kill someone you love out of anger...so live with no regrets. 
Now, wouldn't it be nice if we have such a remote control? Use it wisely and our world would be perfect, harmonious and joyous. Ahhh, me living in fantasy...but it is good to dream, isn't it?

So, come share with me what you would do had you such a remote control? What would you hold, pause, delete, stop, etc??? Come on, share your thoughts with me....


Until my next blog, take care & Happy Xmas shopping!!!

I would say stop the aging process (myself, parents, kids, nature), stop all the fat building up in me, speed up the weight lost against age, slow down the process of seeing my kids growing up - I love seeing them in this tiny size, ability to pick them up easily and cuddle them, reliant upon us, their little antics....hmmmm....doesn't it sound selfish?

Selfish? NO.... Overzealous - YES!!! Hehehe...good thoughts! Perhaps, instead of slowing it down, use Pause to cuddle them longer, hold them longer...
