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

May 12 2017

forums

laugh

I posted this on another topic because it gave me a good giggle. MsJonesy's post in reply (But what about the 5 who claim the light bulb didn't want to be changed and how dare everyone else enforce their will on it 😂) gave me the idea to see if forumites would like to make a topic of it and further expand on this piece of brilliance, RHP style. I hope this topic makes it to Hot Topics because there is nothing like a good laugh at ourselves is there. Peachy xox 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 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. Absolutely spot on and true. Anyone who has been on any kind of forum/discussion board must have seen this before! Cat

    2 people flirting, discussing if the light bulb will fit places it's not designed to. 1 person telling everyone to check out their profile as it discusses the BEST light bulbs ever.

    The 11 posts with the URLs are deleted because that is not allowed. 6 other posts disappear overnight when we are all sleeping. 1 poster tells us the topic has been posted previously and that we should search the old threads to find them. And another adds a quote from one of the old threads, for those of us who couldn't be bothered looking. Then we have a couple of ladies who say they only prefer larger light bulbs. But that is disputed by the odd post saying that sometimes the larger bulbs fit a bit tight and don't screw in properly. Nobody goes anywhere near discussing whether or not the socket is too loose. 3 posts say that they've experienced plenty of bulbs that blow too quickly. 5 posts discuss the look and intensity of bulbs from different era. 29 posts flame a light bulb which is actually part of a set, and trying to fit into another socket. An Edison screw was purchased but just before being taken home it was revealed that it was actually a Bayonet. And 7 posts that in general nobody likes the dim light bulbs.

    As opposed to a heavy bulb?..of course the brightness of the bulb needs to be considered ...too bright and it ruins any romantic ambience..too dull,and it limits the conversation ,peering through gloom leads to a spectacle moment...who wants to confess to myopia after all.:)Q

    Changing lightbulbs in Australia, is illegal, unless you are a certified electrician. Electricians are just like Freemasons, they have their own rituals when changing lightbulbs. (Ms)

    And then the debate that not everyone is into light bulbs, some prefer candles, or lamps or switch lighting depending on how they feel that day and people should stop being so lightbulb normative.

    Rule number one... you cannot talk about changing lightbulbs. Rule number two... you cannot TALK about changing lightbulbs! Nonetheless... 57... Say they can change lightbulbs non stop for hours; 12... to mention that not all lightbulbs are the same... it is racist to only talk about white light wattage/brightness and not include blacklights in the discussion; 3... to mention the differences between screw in lightbulbs and twist/pin lightbulbs, and just because you have a replacement lightbulb, doesn't mean that the other end is going to take your bulb if they are clearly not compatible; 7... to make sure that the male changing the lightbulb in the swingers club premise is not only a licensed electrician (for a commercial premise as according to the law), but also must have a female partner present, or what the HELL is he even doing there!...; 124... single men who just want the chance to put their lightbulb somewhere, and want to push the case that their replacement lightbulb is no different from the replacement lightbulb as provided by an attached male (and to be sure, they have also presented us with pictures of their lightbulb on their profile); 5... forum members who will break and then glass you with their lightbulb remnants if they don't get their way; 12... members who have multiple gallery pictures of them inside surrounded my lightbulbs very much turned on, yet their profile says "no lightbulbs" 5... members stuck with something to say or reply who suddenly have a "lightbulb" moment; 8... members only here to discuss lightbulbs and perhaps the changing thereof, but not interested in encountering any (further) lightbulbs in person; 1... member who simply cannot get enough of the white stuff (light, what the hell were you thinking?); 4... members who must have tried Lily's method because they have light shining out their ...; 5... members who point out that no lightbulb will change by just talking to it, not even presenting fact and figures to it on why it needs changing; 3... to provide aftercare to the previous lightbulb so it knows that it has been appreciated all this time, and does not feel worn/burnt out; 12... who like dogging and therefor would prefer these activities far from any active lightbulb; 14... members who have seen star wars and can think of another use for a double ended light err... bulb? 1... rhp feed to mention that the lightbulb topic is "going crazy".

    3 anal-retentive, nitpicky females will insist that one shouldn't change light bulbs after watching instructional videos from certified electricians on YouTube or from Googling for instructions from bona fide websites because they aren't good enough... and no constructive alternatives will be suggested. 3 will caution death from electrocution... even though you've been changing light bulbs for decades. 1 gentleman will offer to change your lightbulb for tea and a chat. 58 messages appear in your mailbox from male lurkers wanting to capitalise from the damsel in distress situation and offer some sort of kinky barter trade for services rendered. 156 flirts received from more male lurkers who are too lazy / cheap to send msgs but still wish to get their hands in your socket. 4 eco-conscious peeps will suggest making your own soy candles to stop consuming so much electricity. 2 will one-up on them and insist that beeswax candles are better than soy candles. 1 will mention that open flames cause fires which will burn down the house and the entire street. 1 smart alec will suggest being opportunistic and grabbing the opportunity to roast marshmallows in the event of a fire. 4 highly sensitive individuals come in highly emotional because how dare anyone laugh at a fire hazard and people losing their homes. 1 goes absolutely mental and beeserk and accuses the smart alec of being the worst human you ever walk the face of earth and decides that all her psychological issues started because of people like smart alec. The poor OP reminds everyone to stay on topic. 1 smartass decides to call in the Moderators to delete the entire thread because it's causing her PTSD. PP shakes her head at the dramatic absurdity of it all and returns to screwing... after changing the blown bulb of her Himalayan lamp.

    I thought the whole light had burned out so just went to Bunnings and got another one for my nightstand that's working. Sure it was $12 more than a six pack of light bulbs but this one didn't need dusting.

    I think as more members attend to the light bulb changing, as smaller the chance gets changed at all

    In our house it can take months to replace blown globes. But the best story by far is... The reflector light that blew in the bathroom twice in a row last year... So, first we had to find someone to believe the globe could be changed and not blow and that we could afford the counselling for that premature explosion. Many months later, it took the OCDness of 1 person to discover the hidden globe and insist we had nothing to lose trying to fit it in that hole... In between times up to 6 people relied on the heat light and complained that it wasn't working properly without doing anything about it, so they're glad it's getting cooler now... and they can think about screwing heat light number 2 back in... To partner the correct strength (60w) reflector globe currently nestled between only one of the two neccessary heat bulbs which fortunately last for years at a time. Peachy
