A button on the TV-set labeled "Remote Finder" - very practical.

If there's a cat in the house....

it's under the couch.

If you smoke pot, it's in the fridge.

2. I look in or near the cats' litter box...

they've dragged it in there more than once. They do the same thing to lighters.

4. When this happens at our house...

... we pick up whatever animal is asleep on the couch or in the recliner, and "Bingo!", there it is. :P

5. Say "God doesn't want me to watch TV..."

and turn on the radio.

Or read a book.

8. I yell to the kids....

"Okay, who took the remote. Mommy does things for you guys all day long and at night, when I can sit down and have some time for myself, as usual, the remote's missing. :grr: Find it now!!!"

I say this phrase several times a week.

9. I speak sternly to the prone mammals in the room.

Get up. Shake out the blankets. Look about you. If we do not find the remote control, pronto, cavity searches will ensue. If we do not find the remote control within one hour, well, I mean it and I am not kidding now. My edit, I also speak to the beings who are supine, or just generally lounging.
