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 "me too"
  • 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?"
  • Nine to say, "Do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs"
  • One forum lurker to respond to the original post eight months from now and start it all over again
 
I once posted a joke about lightbulbs on a forum.
I did it differently though. I didn't use dot points.:p

You should be careful about posting lightbulb jokes. The danger is,some people aren't bright enough to understand:confused:

That seems to have covered points one and two:)

I think technically you covered points 2 and 3 as point 1 would refer to actual changing of the light bulb itself.

Just for clarification is it a light bulb or a light globe?

"Seven to point out spelling/ grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs"

(or to point out basic arithmetic errors) :oops:

"Six to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" "

Or indeed whether it should be hyphenated - "light-bulb" or "light-globe"?
 
And one idiot to propose the theory that its not actually a light bulb, but in fact a dark sucker :p

When the Q400s were new, one of them was being flown with an unserviceable loo! (Bravo I think). We took the bird from BNE-ROK, so no problem, short flight.

Anyway, on the ROK-CNS hops a couple of days later one or two folk needed the facilities and were offered a hand torch!

It turned out that the problem was just a light bulb

Obviously there weren't enough forum members on this flight ;)
