Funny... copied from another forum

How many forum members does it take 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

1 to move it to the Lighting section

2 to argue then move it to the Electrical 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 light bulb 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 URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs

4 to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URLs

3 to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group

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?"

  • ROFL. Thanks MH, that's hysterical.

    Whoever created this forgot about the lightbulb affiliates who seize the opportunity to spam their lightbulb-selling sites. ;)

  • Mickey, maybe you think that was funny, but it's really not
    appropriate. This is a POKER site. Your post had nothing to
    do with POKER. Please stop posting about light bulbs. If you do
    want to post about light bulbs please go to

    or

    are in Dutch!

    accurate. I am so ashamed....

    Damn... Found me out... I was hoping someone would try and *Correct* my spelling, so I could start a flame war ;).

    EDIT: Actually I was as surprised as anybody that both spellings are actual words in Dutch. Who Knew.... As to if it is actually correct I have No Idea. I was just something funny to do.
  • Can you take this over to rec.games.poker.lightbulbs where it belongs and stop wasting our time, you dumb f*ck.
  • In fact, I'm starting a petition to establish rec.games.poker.lightbulbs.moderated, so that we don't have to put up with crap like this.
  • Oh yeah, and if you go to Walmart, make sure to tell the checkout person "BLUB25" to get 25% more blubs on your next purchase of lightbulbs. It's the best deal on the net there is.

  • Damn, I was gonna do the referral bonus line. lol
  • My vote for worst post of the year. If you need a referral bonus, then you really have no clue how to buy light bulbs. Get a clue bucko.

    It's well known on this forum that I rarely agree with Magi, but I fully agree with you Irish Magi. It's surprising that any of you can even turn on a light bulb, let alone buy one. I wish one of you could turn me on. It's been so long.
