Found this and thought it was hilarious

Stolen from another site...that was stolen from another site....etc, etc...



How many forum members does it take to change a light bulb?

One to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed
Fourteen to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently
Seven to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs
One to move it to the lighting section
Two to argue, then move it to the electrical section
Seven to point out spelling/ grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs
Five to flame the spell checkers
Three to correct spelling/ grammar flames
Six to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another six to condemn those six as stupid
Two industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"
Fifteen know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct
Nineteen to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum
Eleven to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum
Thirty-six 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
Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs
Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URLs
Three to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group
Thirteen to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "+1"
Two to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy
Five to say, "Didn't we go through this already a few months ago?"

Sounds about write!

There have to be a few who would argue over the appropriate wattage.
There would be more to trash the government for regulating light bulbs.
A couple would make the argument that since light bulbs are a necessary thing, the government should provide them. Why should only rich people have light bulbs.
A couple of old codgers to reminisce about their grandpa who refused to have electricity run to his house.
and I am sure people can come up with more...

Umm, so what's the total?

 

[Liberty1911]

That pretty much sums up every forum I'm a member of.

Good gosh

This could easily grow into a major urination competition involving large numbers of participants. There's no way it could be discussed without mention of which brands of lightbulbs are actually made in China and which stores sell those bulbs at a price higher than the price of bulbs made in the U.S.A..

Oh yeah, and if you don't buy this particular line of crap, you are sheep.

I was just about to go buy a bulk pack of high efficiency mercury filled low wattage high lumen bulbs, where is the best place?

It makes me sad that incandescents are being phased out for either mercury filled lamps or leds made from chinese precious materials.

 

[ATM]

Shouldn't someone find a lightbulb cat picture but add nothing else to the argument?

My electric bill isn't sad. I just realized last night when I had to replace some of the last remaining incandescents in my house that the only bulb I've changed in the past 5 years is the porch light, I just can't seem to get the fluerescents to work outside even in a closed lamp fixture.

Well at least not as long as the inside ones...

 

[DanVoils]

The light is out in my cyalume. Anyone know where I can get a replacement bulb for it?

No but I can teach you a better two hand grip to help tame the recoil on that mighty 9mm

LOL If you look in my right hand you'll see the camera remote. I had a loose grip on the gun to get a better picture. I am doing pretty good hitting the target in my sig though!

[BehindBlueI's]

At least three to point out the Nazis used light bulbs, and if you adhere to "the man's" rule about light bulbs you are basically putting your neighbor in an oven.

3/4 of the forum to engage in an indepth conversation on concealed bulb, always to remain behind a lamp shade but to provide light only when needed, or open bulb, on the lamp with no shade for anyone to see the source of the light.

 

[atalon]

LOL ^^^

 

[Jmak]

Great post. I have been there even on this forum someone not liking what I wrote. Fun ain't it!!?

 

[Slawburger]

Shouldn't someone mention the superiority and proper usage of tactical light bulbs?
