Light bulbs

[modelperry]

Q: How many people does it take to change a lightbulb on Facebook (or on a forum)?
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
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 page is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a light bulb page
11 to defend the posting to this page saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant here
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
5 People to post pics of their own light bulbs
15 People to post "I can't see S$%^!" and use their own light bulbs
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
5 to post to the page 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 search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs"
1 to bring politics into the discussion by adding that (insert politician of choice) isn't the brightest bulb.
4 more to get into personal attacks over their political views.
1 admin to ban the light bulb posters for inserting political discussion and close the thread.

And...are those energy efficient lightbulbs?

I ask because I have been seeing a lot of LED bulbs everywhere
but I was in Ikea the other day and everything they sell is still incandescant.
Is this still the Swedish way? They aren't interested in LED lights?
And why have the Swedish meatballs been removed from the menu?
They had Chicken meatballs...and Meatballs Marinara...but no Swedish Meatballs?
Is this the result of that Cow disease thing that happened a while back?
Did they not solve that problem?
Was it related to the anti-biotic trend in meat farming?
My daughter says she has friends who raise cattle and pigs and such,
and they all use meds including antibiotic to help control illnesses
otherwise these animals can suffer with all kinds of painful problems.
They say the amount of antibiotics in the meat is so negligible that the welfare of the animals should come first.
have you noticed that Cows don't like these new LED lights on cars?
And are all cars equipped with these new LED lights?
And do these LED headlightsreally work better than the old type of headlamps?
What was wrong with with the old style headlamps.
You could swap those out quick and dirt cheap.
Now a days, you need a special license and training to change LED headlamps.
In fact you can't even do it alone...some cars are so complicated, it requires more than one Mechanic.
I wonder...
how many people does it take to change an LED lightbulb?

Please note that I "borrowed" the original post from one of my FB friends. I was remiss in not giving due credit to Mr. Sanders.

Thanks dude, even if you'll never see this.
