[Grumpy's_Girl]

This reminds me of something I saw a while ago on another board.

How many posters does it takes 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
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 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 starts it all over again

Can you tell me what the weather is going to be like Feb. 15, 2008 at Magic Kingdom?

Yes! One I can answer...!!!

Scattered clouds with a chance of an afternoon shower around 4pm... lasting about 30 minutes.

Same forecast as almost everyday.

I just added a picture of my bird to my signature.

Can you really wake up Tinkerbell? I heard you can. Can you? Is it just a rumor? Is it really her or just a light? Does she fly around the room and then lead you to a magical place full of free Fast Passes, or would that only be for resort guests? What are Fast Passes? Can I get one for my whole family to share? What if one person waits in the Fast Pass line for all of us while the others try to get a table for dinner? What's an ADR? Is the Haunted House in Disneyworld or is that Men in Black?

Boy, can you tell I'm cranky today? Stupid five hour dress rehearsal...

Moderator to move this thread to CB as it no longer about Trip Planning....

What building do I need to request to make absolutely POSITIVE we get a room that will have towel animals in the shape of our favorite houseplants? It's really important that they are both species and genus specific, as this trip will celebrate DH's 41st anniversary of tying his shoes, eldest DD's 10,000th toothbrushing & younger DD's 52nd new box of crayons.

Oh, almost forgot, should I have had the anniversaries noted on our ADRs & do you think they'll give us free desert for that?

Please don't flame me, but I absolutely everything good about WDW that everyone agrees about, and everything bad about WDW that everyone agrees about.

Hey, I see your zip code rhymes with one near where I've been before!

Question about the specific dates on which a special event will take place weeks or months before Disney announces those dates.

Question about when characters from an upcoming movie that hasn't been released yet will begin appearing in the parks.

Question about what time the 3:00 parade begins.

Just an FYI for those that don't know....

You are able to "turn off" the signature options and not have to see any. I finally had to resort to this, as most signatures were out of control and were really taking away the enjoyment of the board for me.

Now, I browse to my heart's content and don't have to worry about obnoxious signatures!!

LOVE it!!

Reply from someone who thinks they know the answers to all these questions...except the last one.

LOL

Got to 'user CP' and then 'edit options' and scroll down toward the bottom. Uncheck the box that says "show signatures".

How fast do I have to run in order to wake up tink?

Will it help if I wear crocs?

What is the best month to wake up tink?

What is the best resort to stay in while attempting to wake up tink?

What should I eat the night before I want to wake the little fairy up?

What if I show up while juggling a turkey leg, dole whip and zebra dome?

Will it be raining while I am sprinting to the tink store?

Has anyone ever eaten a soggy zebra dome?

Will other parents get pissed off if I push them out of the way even though they were there first?

I'm so confused!
