  • How many forum members does it take to change a lightbulb?(a bit long)

    1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been
    changed.

    14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the
    light bulb could have been changed differently.

    7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.

    1 to move it to the Lighting section.

    2 to argue then move it to the Electricals section.

    7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs.

    5 to flame the spell checkers.

    3 to correct spelling/grammar flames.

    6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another 6
    to condemn those 6 as stupid.

    2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp".

    15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light
    bulb" is perfectly correct.

    19 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take
    this discussion to a lightbulb forum.

    11 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light
    bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum.

    36 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where
    to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for
    this technique and what brands are faulty.

    7 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs.

    4 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the
    corrected URL's.

    3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to
    this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group.

    5 people to hotlink to pictures of lightbulbs hosted on geocities.

    6 people to complain about dead images.

    3 people to tell them to right click the image and copy the URL into
    another window.

    13 to read all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including
    all headers, images and signatures, and add "I agree".

    5 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they
    cannot handle the light bulb controversy.

    4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?".

    13 to say "do a search on light bulbs before posting questions about
    light bulbs".

    1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and
    start it all over again.
    "Light a fire for someone and he will be warm all day,
    set light to someone and he will be warm for the rest of his life" Sir Samuel Vimes

    Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

            1 to say they got the first reply

            5 to say that posting just to say you got the first reply is against the T&C's of the forum

                              Next Time, Let the Bulb Blow!

                              Inevitably, someone posts a revealing story about the bad things that happen to good bulbs. These stories should be taken as a warning.

                              ***Caveat: lewd story follows***


                              1st little boy: My dad is the strongest man in the world.

                              2nd little boy: You're dreaming. My dad can do something that no other dad can do.

                              1st little boy: Oh, yeah? What's that, smarty?

                              2nd little boy: He can eat light bulbs.

                              1st little boy: That is so bogus. What makes you think your dad can eat light bulbs?

                              2nd little boy: He and my mom were in the bed the other night and I heard him say, "Turn out that light and I'll eat that thing."
