Tele or Telly?

Re: Tele or Telly?
going off at a tangent here: what do you call the telly remote control?
Most people are probably just going to say "er, I call it the remote control, or just the remote", but for some reason I've always referred to the remote as "the buttons". A very good friend of mine back in Britain told me his whole family refer to the remote (for reasons lost in family history) as the "crapswitch", which I rather like.

You'll be saying there and their are interchangeable next. This is a very important matter of spelling, and I think you should give it more consideration.
