how many boardies does it take....
« on: Oct 12, 2006, 10:11:46 PM »
to change a lightbulb? (got this off the same forum as the acceleration one)

Quote


Quote

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

5 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs

17 to flame the spell checkers

10 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

8 to email the participant's ISPs complaining that they are in violation of their "acceptable use policy"

5 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum

9 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and lightbulb forum about changing light bulbs be stopped

4 people to post. can this be made a sticky?

1 new forum member to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again

Cool! That means you've changed your opinion of me...I'm no longer the dim bulb?
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
