Moderators dtel Posted December 1, 2010 Moderators Share Posted December 1, 2010 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 1 to move it to the Lighting section after 2 have argued to move it to the Electricals section 7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs 5 to flame the spell checkers 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 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 supermarkets are offering discounts on brands of light bulbs, and what customer service they expect in a lightbulb shop 4 to say that they've been disappointed in Lightbulb Live for the last 4 years 12 to ask why those 4 keep going to Lightbulb Live only to complain about it 1 to break the news about the new limited release light bulb 1 to post that the news was already broken in another thread and start a poll about reading entire threads 12 to post that they shouldn't mention limited releases because someone might buy them to resell 1 to insist he has every right to buy and sell lightbulbs 1 to obsessively insist that no-one should make profit from lightbulbs on this forum 5 to post that they've collected 11 of the limited edition lightbulbs already so might as well get the whole set. 32 to not bother posting because there's no post count showing anymore 8 to say that their electric company sent them 4 free lightbulbs, when quite clearly they would have preferred the moon on a stick. 6 to post thinly veiled criticisms of forum staff's management of lightbulbs 15 to post that forum staff can do exactly as they want with their own lightbulbs 6 to pretend they were just asking innocent questions about lightbulb management and didn't do anything wrong 1 to ask that forum staff backup all mention of lightbulbs so they can write a book about their really interesting life with lightbulbs 11 to reply that it's not a personal lightbulb anecdote storage facility 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 pictures, 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.

Guest " " Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 great laugh. we are all so pridictable. this morning I thought about a young lady I stopped hanging out with about 4 months ago wondering why she popped back into my life for a few minutes at the 3 week point. we are all driven by brain checmicals. the one for social connection is vasporhen (not sure of the spelling). Vasporhen is produced by the brain to addict you to a relevent social aspect of yuor life. once the connection is broken, your brain, no longer stimulated by the social connection, goes into withdraw. the withdraw binge is at the 3 week point. if you can survive that, with out re-connecting in any way, you are un hooked. if you later reconnect at all, you are totally re-hooked. sometimes it's helpful, if you want to start an informative thread, to start a few decoy threads about acoustic measurements, crossovers, amplifcation power, wires, capacitors, tube swapping or other passionate subjects. this keeps all the habitual thread busters clustered together arguring with each other and out of the thread you really were interested in. the habitual thread busters have a social need that only this behavior can satisfy. vasporhen gets produced in their brains, and they feel good, warn, and secure.

jacksonbart Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I think the original poster has purchased the wrong light bulb, he should try an LED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jheis Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Just witnessed someone on the Rennlist 928 forum resurrect a 2 year old post dissing his company - which only served to remind people why they should avoid doing business with him in the first place. Some people never learn .... James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's funny.... now where is that current 'Cornwall or Heresy' thread that I was going to convert into a Jubilee thread...... [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I thought this thread was about light bulbs? Or Lightbulbs? Or electically powered lamps? And don't forget the "political environmentalists" posting about how we should all be using Compact Fluorescent Lightbulbs as they save so much energy and last so much longer (allegedly) but forget to mention the mercury contained in them to poison us all. (A FB friend posted we should send all our old worn out CFLs to Al Gore). Or the new LED bulbs JB mentioned. And oh, sorry, I brought up politics so now things get really ugly.
