I think we've got YouthNOISE described in this joke. You might have already heard this one but, oh well.

How many Message Board Posters does it take to change a light bulb???

here goes:


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


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


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 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 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


3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group


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.

That's YN

Thanks for bumping it, Ikki. This made me laugh so hard the other day.

I actually have a pentagon joke that is something like that

How many pentagon employees does it take to change a lightbulb?

well it takes :
10 people to form a comitee to investigate various types of lightbulb

30 people to hassle about their findingd

40 guys to select a lightbulb

1 guy to write a check for $800 for the lightbulb

10 to discuss proper check writing technique

40 to apporve the purchase

1 to change the lightbulb

30 to discuss proper lightbulb changing technique in committe

40 to make a report of the findings of said committe

60 summarize the report

and 100 people to find all reports and results from all of the above and compile it in to an 7000 page tome entilted "AF/A/MC/N Manual XXX402387 "Proper purchase, care, and changing of electric spheroid illumination devices"

and finally 20 generals to decied that the report is incomplete and start a joint-service task force to further explore ligh bulbs and light buls matinenece in all it's various forms
