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

You forgot the three that will argue the light bulb never wanted to be changed in the first place.

And the one that will insist taking three zeros off the price will make your money worthless at Home Depot!

[DiveDeepSix]

Hmmm.... How many flies does it take to screw in a light bulb? Only two but nobody knows how they got in there!!

[cooked]

The answer also depends if they are unionized.

And it takes one mod to lock the topic.

And 7 to hit the "Report" button on their screen (Hey! My report button doesn't work any more! )

What fun!

Reality is always funnier than fiction. I work in a small high rise building. We have three maintenance workers. Every Thursday they replace burned out light bulbs. All three of them participate because we have raised ceilings. Two hold the ladder, one changes the light bulb. They hate changing light bulbs anywhere near my work station because I always ask them......"How many men does it take to change a light bulb?"........They hate me on Thursdays...lol.
