How many............

[Anonymous]

QUESTION:

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

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 posted 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 Forum 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.

cute, but on this forum instead of arguing which brand of light bulb, we'd have to argue about which breed of light bulb. i'm sure bp would say the biggest, baddest light bulbs come from the sandhills, where real light bulbs are made & the longhorn folks would say that the skinniest, narrowest light bulbs that can emit with the lowest amt of energy are best & then there will be the folks who claim that the obscure lightbulbs that can only be found in designer stores & can only be sold to collectors are best.

just kidding everyone!!

And of course, we'd have the discussion about color - red (we all know what they are used for), black (for people in the dark), etc.

I always love to see, "If you don't know how many forum members it takes, you shouldn't have a light bulb!"
