Tailgater's marathon thread reminded me of something i read on the stovebolt page a couple of month's ago that i thought was worthy of sharing with you guys. It was submitted by "In2deep" and goes like this: How many forum members does it take to change a light bulbs? 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 controvesy 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 start it all over again. Hope you guys get a chuckle or 2 out of this I'd hate to know i got typer's cramp for nothing
Um, doesn't this post belong in the "general" section?? Just kidding. I have to go clean up the soda I spit out laughing so hard at this post. Keep up the good work!.....Mike
Thanks Ken was a Great reminder why I like this group so much. We can get to the bottom of anything sometimes just takes a long curver road to get there. I vote we move this to another section like Section #8 will do.
Search I vote we each do a Google search, compare this with other topics related to this one and then decide where in the heck we want to put it!!!! TOO FUNNY, bring on sa mo TB'sD
