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

dahamsta

Thought this would have been posted before but a search doesn't turn up. No doubt 5 members will be along in a moment to point out the correct search terms...

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.

I'm deeply disappointed no members in the example called for the head of the mod. Tsk tsk.

I propose that we turn on the light bulb message Icon for all replys to this Thread, just to bring some order to this forum.
WE NEED RULES PEOPLE!

why haven’t the mods locked this yet ? The mods aren’t doing their jobs....can I be the mod?

I’m sending a PM to the admins...down with all the mods of the light bulb / illumination forum.

BTW I prefer the screw in bulbs instead of the pushy twisty ones...more satisfying or something

You are mod of too much already, I want to be mod, seeing as I did three years of building services in college.

I'm never quite sure how tight to twist the twisty one and am afraid of the glass breaking in my hand.

The light (bulb) brings only the darkness of flaming and wakens the trolls from their slumber.
*quick snap of the head, as if responding to a noise off in the distance*
Oh lord, I think I hear much more coming, quick flee to the After hours.

The orginal post forgot to mention students with way to much time, who turn the topic into te core of soem fringe theater show or movie adn keep posting to ask everyone do they mind them using their posts in the play. Not that that (<--hun, that makes sense) has ever happend though.

*Takes out a compact wet trout and backs out of the room slowly*

BTW: The correct term is Lamp, and the best type are the twisty screw in energy saving types, i but a 60 watt. Good for reading in and the doctors tell me it keeps the voices away.

Instead of "that that", you can say "that it".

hedgetrimmer

Well actually I used to work in the lamp, or "light bulb" (note the space) Industry as a screwer and "that that" is a technically correct term in documents relating to light blub, lamps and lamp related products
