I saw this on another forum and thought it was funny:
How many forum members does it take to change a lightbulb?
1 to change the light bulb and 1 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"
... another 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
156 to email the participant's ISPs complaining that they are in violation of
their "acceptable use policy"
109 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this
discussion to a lightbulb forum
203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and
lightbulb forum about changing light bulbs be stopped
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
14 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
33 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers
and signatures, and add "Me too"
12 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy
19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three"
4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ
44 to ask what is a "FAQ"
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 new forum member to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again.

Blackcat31 06:19 AM 01-26-2011
....but are you sure that is the type of light bulb she was referring too? There are several different types so I am still not convinced this was what the OP meant when she said light bulb.
missnikki 06:23 AM 01-26-2011
No, nevermind, I don't third. If that's a lightbulb, I was thinking of something else. I'm going to report you to Michael for posting that picture and making me look stupid.

Aww crap. I guess I'm going to have to be the grammar checker... ....but are you sure that is the type of light bulb she was referring too? There are several different types so I am still not convinced this was what the OP meant when she said light bulb.
