Hold the fob in your teeth, you'll get an addition five to ten feet out of it. Seriously.

So are you still doing that now? I’m surprised you haven’t invested in making pants pockets with teeth by now bro

I believed him when he said seriously, just not something I deem worth of my sense.

I have laughed so hard at this. You will also once you hold the fob to your mouth.

So after deep consideration I went a head and did it but the results were the same, so I’m thinking maybe if I put it in my pants zipper, I might find something new out 😂

You introduced yourself to the forum with a fair question. A moderator gave you a simple answer that probably seemed unorthodox, but is a real answer nonetheless. Then you mocked him, then you dissed me, then made another lame joke.

It's not worth it. We're done here.
