How Many Disers

[Island_Lauri]

How Many Disers does it take to change a lightbulb?

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"

248 lurkers who are saying to themselves one day when I have enough time and money I am going to change a light bulb too. But then again maybe it looks too hard...

1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again.


************************************************

Definitely can't claim credit for this - found it on another forum (not DIS) and noted how appropriate it was for this forum so I thought I would share.

Don't forget a few who offer for a job well done.

 

[Hercules10]

And the 1 pervert (me) to somehow turn a light bulb into a sexual object.

 

[sweetspicy]

About 350 DISers to quote the original post in its entirety....

But I like this list. Very true.

 

[highland3]

It's funny because it's true!

 

[rie'smom]

This is great!!!

 

[monkeyboy]

post a poll

 

[Banzai]

Very true! Then what about the seven to post about the issues with special needs and light bulbs? Or the 18 to post about the quality of light bulbs at Pop Century vs. the quality found in concierge level rooms at Contemporary?

 

[Allison]

And 3 to say "subscribing".

 

[Missy1961]

And 1 to blame it all on the Dining Plan!

 

[Missy1961]

And another few blame it on President Bush.
And then some blame it on the liberal media.

2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"

Didn't we go through this already a short time ago? Kidding! I like the add-ons.
