The most bizarre thing

happened last night while I was posting to DU. Our TV turned itself on--my husband had gone to bed 20 minutes earlier, and the cat was with him--and what was on was totally hard-core porn. I mean, everything. In the corner of the screen it said "for coyotes only" or it might have been "cougars" but these ladies were too young to be cougars.

I ran upstairs to tell my husband, and he said "just turn it off" and went back to sleep.

I tried to check the screen that tells you what channel you're watching, but that screen wouldn't come up--just more fucking and sucking. I tried pushing the "record" button but that didn't work, either.

We don't subscribe to any porn channels (that I know of!), and besides, if we did, it would show on the menu screen, right?

A wonderful Christmas present, I guess.

Do you have a smart TV or any device that connects to the tv and runs on wifi? That can be hacked.

Any chance husband was watching it and accidentally cast it to the TV? (assuming smart tv) No judgment, but that could explain it.

and I asked him how much it costs (it's premium stuff, believe me), and he said it was free! Damn. Back in the days when I was interested in porn, the actresses always kept their brassieres on. But then, I'm old as dirt.

God bless him, I say. Keeps him off my back. As it were.

In this age of "intelligent" devices, maybe they just want to have fun!

After all, They're only human!
