    Default Light bulb...

    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

    1 to move it to the Lighting section

    2 to argue then move it to the Electrical 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.

    Light bulbs do not give out light - they suck dark. This explains why sometimes lightbulbs are black when they stop working - they are so full of dark that they just can't suck any more in. Also light is heavier than dark, we can see this in the oceans, the deeper you go the more dark is down there where it has sunk. We can also see it in the sun which sucks dark during the day getting heavier and heavier as it goes until it sinks and stops sucking the dark. This is usually at night when the light gets consumed by dark, which is not getting sucked any more. It is only when the sun has spilled all the dark out that it gets lighter in weight and can come back up again to start sucking the dark. It is also important to note that dark is not black, it's just very, very, very dark red. We can see this in some evenings and mornings where the sun is not sucking all the dark and just small amounts of "red dark" can be clearly seen in the sky.

    PS, this is the lightbulb forum isn't it?

    Hmmm... I think I need to smoke whatever you've been smoking.

    And I must explain to my wife how my XXXXX is dark and her XXXXX is light. Hmm is that the right way round?

    Err, or maybe I shouldn't

    Sorry Mike,already smoked it all. It was banana skins mainly. I have some other theories which I will share later. You should be honoured, the only other person I have shared this with was my psychiatrist, shortly before he went mental and got himself committed.
    As for the penis issue, all I can say is that the difference between light and hard is that it is possible to go to sleep with a light on but impossible to sleep with a hard on.
    I'm not sure if this relates to your situation or not. Probably not.
    Keep Smiling :-)
