How many GFY'ers does it take to change a lightbulb? - GoFuckYourself.com

quantum-x · 06-18-2005, 04:31 AM

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

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

53 to flame the spell checkers.

41 to correct spelling/grammar flames.

6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light
bulb" (note; spell-check believes it's the latter)

6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive.

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

109 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs
and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb
forum

111 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we
all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are
relevant to this forum

306 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

27 to post URL's where one can see examples of
different light bulbs.

40 posters who don't believe in light bulbs at all and
instead post links to pseudo-scientific sites that
claim alternate theories of light production.

12 to point out that there is no right to light in the
US Constitution.

4 to post that all the tech support for changing light
bulbs is being outsourced to India.

1 post showing a picture of a light bulb and a picture
of someone who resembles a light bulb.

14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and
then post the corrected URL's

1 poster that has converted all his light bulbs to
fluorescents, so he very rarely has to change them.

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

4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ

44 to ask what is a "FAQ"

13 to tell you candles should be in all well-prepared
households in the event of a lightbulb burnout.

5 postings that say they do not use light bulbs...only
candles.

1 to mention the "lite" bulb is made of low-fat
cheese.

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

143 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.

So true, so true.

Well written, well done. You could also add in the 17 superior idiots who'd say that changing light bulbs is beneath them, that they hire flunkies to do that for them.

.. and the 247 teenage "webmasters" who would say their mom handle's all the light-bulb duties in their house (and basement)

And lastly, you forgot woj, who would post "50 light bulbs..." "100...." at the top of all 17 pages of such a thread.

:D

Darwin awards had a story submitted about light bulbs. Basically, a guy claims that if one puts a light bulb in their mouth, it is impossible to get it out again without smashing it. This sets off a chain of people trying it for themselves...
