Drax240z Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 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 10 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 purists 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 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.

JKDGabe Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Pretty good but this is HybridZ... so the first member posts about how he changed his light bulb and the second says "yeah, I had a 150 watt bulb when I first got the lamp but now have a 200 watt". And then there are those who insist that flourescent bulbs are so much more efficient that we should all swap to them. RWHP= real wattage - high powered.

Dan Juday Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 And one moderator to lock the thread when he decides the topic of light bulbs has become too controversial. Well that tears it. I'm sure to be banned now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jwink25 Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 What about the people who would want to "hot rod" the light bulb? You know...bigger coil, stream line the shape, tinted glass, oh! and maybe add a reflective lens to it. Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest comeandzpa Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Hahahaha Drax....wow. A true gift to see things as they are. Don't forget the 3 members to give the "back in MY day, we were lucky to HAVE light bulbs!" (or lightbulbs, if you prefer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cusp Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Ironic. Everytime someone makes a list about funny stuff, a dozen people post their funny one-liner to add to it. Only this time the list was about those very posters, yet they still came back with their witty comments. Kinda missed the satire in the original list, eh? Wait, I just did the same thing they did.... :malebitchslap: phuk it. Bedtime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 also about 3 members that will say that megasquirt is a better alternative anyway. if we could we would use the MS-unit for lighting also, just think, fully programable flashing. RPM sensitive flashing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaparral2f Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Its all so true. But I still can't figure out how to change that bulb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 I wouldn't use my member to change a lightbulb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilRufusKay Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Drax, That is the most hilarious and relevant insight I have seen so far!!! I nearly puked up my lunch laughing so hard!! The very first post would be one you listed last though... "Do a search"...followed be a paragraph or two about why they should search...at the end would be a reponse to the question anyway!!!
