SOMEONE HELP!!!!

Will someone stop by soon with a new TV for me? Mine has been broken for a few days and I have a paper due tonight that I have not started on and I am a bit unsure of how to procrastinate without the TV. Ok sure maybe it is possible that the remote control is the nazi in the equation here, since it doesn't light up when buttons are pushed anymore, but how am I supposed to know that the TV works if I can't get the remote control to turn it on? I am not one to jump to such scientific conclusions without the whole picture, so for now I have to say the TV is broken. So if you want to show up with a TV and some AAA batteries, I will let you have the original TV if it works.
