How many Dopers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

One to speak on behalf of the Lightbulb Changers Society, informing everyone that methods for changing lightbulbs are copyrighted and therefore shouldn’t be discussed here.

One more to point out that “lightbulb changer” is an anagram for “bright legal bunch.”

One (A) to point out that doing things up nicely around the home and co-ordinating fixtures and fittings is not limited to the gay community.

Another 25 to immediately post to point out that there is NO gay community, NO gay lifestyle, NO gay agenda, etc.

One of the 25 to start a Pit thread asserting the bigotry of A, followed by 24 others telling A that redemption lies through writing a self-criticism.

SolGrundy to give A a hug and share his life story some.

…before telling him to f*** off some.

One to start a GD thread about which wattage actually delivers the best performance.

One to start a Cafe Society thread about lightbulbs in the movies, theater and television.

One to start an IMHO thread about wattage preferences.

One to start a MPSIMS thread about how many dopers it takes to change a lightbulb.

One to start a Pit thread about the idiots who disagree with his/her assessment of which wattage delivers the best performance.

One to start a Pit Thread bitching about all the Dopers it takes to screw in a fricking lightbulb.

One to start a Pit Thread about outsourcing the guy/gal who actually screws in the lightbulb.

One to start Pit Thread about Bush.

One to start a Pit thread asking why we need so many freaking light bulb threads.

One to post an actual thread in GQ about it.

One to not read the thread and post an answer that hopefully hasn’t been given yet;

Two, but no-one knows how they got in there.

One post to clue us in on the secret transmitter chip implanted in the bulb by John Ashcroft/Hillary Clinton/Zionist Occupation Government that makes white kids listen to hip-hop.

This will be backed up with a link to an incomprehensible site that appears, amazingly, to have been written with crayons.

One newbie Guest to ask who Opal is.

:dubious:

Hmmm. And then one to come in completely out of left field…

One to exploit the opportunity to show off useless trivial knowledge, because the chemical symbol for Tungsten (which the filament is made out of) is a “W”. This is 'cause Tungsten used to be named Wolfram back in the day.

Why they changed it I can’t say, folks just liked it better that way.

Oh, and one to shamelessly troll for other TMBG fans…

And one to point that the head-count could be reduced to one…if the wee Doper in question is flexible enough.

One to say that the lightbulb was actually still lit, and didn’t need to be changed at all.

Then one more to say that everyone thought that the lightbulb needed to be changed, and the room is brighter with the new lightbulb anyway.
And finally one to say that the lightbulb wasn’t really dead, but had a NBE (Near Burned-out Experience.)

I hope no one posted this one yet…

How many dopers does it take to screw in a light bulb? None. They don’t screw in light bulbs. They screw in hot tubs.

One to complain about obviously joke links that don’t work.

592 to imagine how it would have been done by Tolkien, Ian Fleming, Lewis Carroll, etc etc etc.

One to come in and nominate that thread for Teemings.

One to point out that that song existed before TMBG.

(Although I do love them. "Universe man, Universe man, size of the entire Universe man… " :D)

One to bump the thread.

And one more to bring up the irrelevant subject of whether cake is chocolate cake even if it’s yellow with chocolate icing…

And one ignorant linkn follower who can’t read date headers to bump it again and get it closed down by a mod…
