"Gat damnit Juan, the other mutherfucker over there the bright one"   but really though....  all three are used....   lamp is inside the light bulb...  the filiment....   some burn gas... so there bulbs....   and only bulbs....  thats like trying to compair...  a concrete truck to a cement trucki.....    well  if were getting technal about it....  cement is in concrete.....  hahah.....  man I love boards.........

				 | Lightbulb changing services offered! I didn't have a clue before seeing all those people changing the lightbulbs. And now, thanks to you, I can COPY you, and devalue all our efforts! Cheers boardmembers. Expect to see more lightbulb services springing up in the future!

				 | 5 people to claim that GE is shaving, and post proof - pictures of 4-pack light bulbs where one is broken. 10 people associated with GE or afraid of GE to post that the photos were photoshopped and the original 5 are dirty scammers. 4 to ask for proof. 15 to re-quote the original proof posts. 3 to bump it everyday for a week so no one forgets that GE shaves. 1500 to forget it 9 days later. |
