Must have been posted here before. Won't harm to do it again.
How many message board members does it take to change a lightbulb??
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
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
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 anal-retentive
2 industry professionals to inform 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
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 controversy
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
1 to say you gotta put "OT" in the subject line for
light bulbs.
5 to change the subject line so nobody has any idea what the new threads are.

There is a break in reality. Do not adjust your mind.

ROFLMAO - Ave, you kill me! I think who ever wrote that joke must have been studying ch.com for awhile!!
LOLOLOL I especially like this one...to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too". (sort of like what I've just done by posting my reply to you, Ave! ooops. k, shutting up now!)
