how many forum members does it take to change a light bulb


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

13 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including
all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"

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 Google 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

10 that discuss if the lightbulb even exists and calls the manufacture to see if a light bulb went to this person

Oh my ...

:eek:

Good golly!

And how many of those "posts" are each of us responsible for at one time or another?

I'll admit to at least "several" ... if not quite ALL of 'em. :o

:D

Gee, I think you forgot a few, specific to Pet Talk:

5 to post photos of their CATS "helping" supervise the light bulb change

7 to post photos of their DOGS holding the light bulbs in their mouths

2 to post photos of their birds perched on the light bulb

3 to post photos of their horses trotting AROUND the light bulbs with out breaking them

4 to post photos of their small mammals using the light bulbs as rolling toys

1 to say his snake is upset the light bulb isn't warmer

6 to say they dropped the lightbulb in the tank but the fish are enjoying it, and to post photos of the fish checking out this new item which appeared from above.

Hope you don't mind my add ons! :D

Funny.

However the last line, 10 that discuss if the lightbulb even exists and calls the manufacture to see if a light bulb went to this person was never on the original. :rolleyes:
