ALSO One to post that "i never thought a post about lightbulbs [light bulbs] could be so entertaining!! :D"

[sweetkiss]

OK! GIRL! THAT IS SOME OF THE FUNNIEST SHIT I HAVE READ IN WEEKS! And it is all so very true!

But I think you forgot:

3 to come in and say that lightbulbs have NEVER done anything for them and therefor they will cease to use them from this point on.

[~Ani~]

Five posters to remind people to stay on topic...

It is so very true, Anna - as soon as I read it, I thought of this place

[pandorya]

Oh man, funny shit.

8 to say that anyone with a newer join date should GTFO because they don't know light bulbs like the oldies do.

[christie_echelon]

i liked the newbie to pop in and say hi

6 to get a spin off topic about where are they gonna get the ladder from

[nusqum_esse]

Another six to condemn those six as stupid.

and ten to tell those people they need to quit being so mean.

[TeachJoanne]

5 to come in and hijack the thread with a private, non-related conversation.

3 to post that they are sitting back with e-popcorn and enjoy the carnage.

[bloochick]

Ani~ You'd think I'd learn not to drink anything while reading things like this. *goes to gather papertowel for cleanup on aisle four* Bloody brilliant. Thought I'd add a few:

Two to tell OP to use the search feature because someone posted about changing lightbulbs two years ago.

Two Mods to tell everyone to stop using higher wattage bulbs because it's sucking up all the energy of the boards.

Four to tell everyone to turn the damn lights off because they're annoying.

Ten to defend their right to keep the lights on because they're pretty.

Three of those ten to point out that there are a lot of people who haven't turned their lights off!

One Mod to limit everyone to one lightbulb per post.

Twenty to thank the Mod for a brilliant idea.

Four to tell the twenty that all the thank you's are not necessary and to STFU.

Six to start new topics on why or why not the changes to the light bulb policy is actually working.
