How many DIS members does it take to change a lightbulb?

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.

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

Three to correct spelling/grammar errors.

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

Another six to condemn those six as stupid.

Fifteen to claim experience in the lighting industry and give the
correct spelling.

Nineteen to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to
please take this discussion to a lightbulb (or light bulb) forum.

Eleven to defend the posting to the group saying that we all use
light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this group.

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 URL.

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".

Five to post to the group that they will no longer post because they
cannot handle the light bulb controversy.

Four to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"

Thirteen to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting
questions about light bulbs."

Three to tell a funny story about their cat and a light bulb.

AND

One group lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now
with something unrelated and start it all over again

It takes 178 Dis Members to change a light bulb! Apparently we need lessons on how to screw in a light bulb!

57 to tell the OP to call his or her lawyer or doctor to get a professional opinion and wonder why the OP asked on a message board to begin with.

37 to tell that other 57 that they ARE a doctor or lawyer (or are married to one or went to school for it but never graduated or have a neighbor who has a sister who has a friend with an uncle who's girlfriend is a doctor or a lawyer) so they are perfectly capable of dispensing advice about light bulbs (or lightbulbs)

12 to post nothing but the )because they know that the lightbulb threads always get heated.)

and because they want to boost their post count

That's right!

Don't forget the heated debate on who is the better person those who leave their lightbulbs under the care of trained professionals while they work or those who stay home to raise their own lightbulbs.
