How many Forum Subscribers 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 Forum section.

2 to argue then move it to the Electrical Forum 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' URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs.

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

3 to 'post' about links they found from the URLs 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." cheers

I was forced into a yes vote because you seem to have forgotten that in the U.S. we have the Occupational Safety and Health Act or O.S.H.A. which requires us in all matters to call in a professional, in this case an electrician (who will charge us the cost of the light bulb plus an exhorbitant labor fee). This the gov't. has done for our own safety and well being, nice they think of us isn't it rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

You’ve forgotten to mention a couple of memoirs “When I was a light bulb…”

And another couple: “All my ex-light-bulbs and their numerous dead sins”

Very humorous and unfortunately true post. laugh

I'd have to read the list over, but did you include the eight who snort that the OP wouldn't know a lightbulb from a flowerbulb, punctuated with hysterical rolling on the floor laughing emoticons, the zealots who claims the OP should switch to solar power professor, the five who say hello to each other for the or change the topic hijack, the three who opine how to light the OP's fire in useless flirtation heart beating , and the sticky finger who submits their response too many times, resulting in triple posting typing, while the reader who is wading through the thread finds it deleted by the mods right under him mumbling...laugh

Dear Patmac,

It sounds like you are talking about women. that's what women do. they talk and talk and talk and talk and talk. Then, just when you think they are done, they talk some more. And a lot of them think that dirty jokes and locker room talk are worse than shooting people with machine guns. And a lot of them get all worked up over stuff that doesn't effect them much because they CARE about things that men don't seem to noitice. I hope that clears up some of the questions in your mind.
And, there are also a lot of people on this site who are doing anything but dating. some of them are good, some of them are bad. All you can really do is COMPLETELY F___ING IGNORE the posters who are pissing you off or trying to make trouble for you and keep in looking for that one person you think you want to be with. Because, out of all these people, that one person is the only one who matters.
