Well we seem to be lacking that forum

 

[Tab]

25 to debate if the light blub is really needed.

 

[amok]

You forgot one very special type of poster that starts a small chain reaction:

1 to come in and ask an off topic question that hijacks the whole thread (sorry, don't mean to do this!! )

43 to post on the off topic question

1 to say a new thread should be started on the new topic and please keep it on the subject posted

7 to flame that one

13 to flame the flamers

2 to flame each other for about 17 posts

Btw, how did you decide on your numbers? (See what I mean? I really can't help it!!)

Damn Charrison, that's the funniest thing I've seen in a while. You know the P&N forum a little too well.

 

[DealMonkey]

Oooooh, so MANY bulbs!!

I find the reference to light bulbs offensive. I always find a light bulb indicative of an idea. To have an idea smeared by useless banter is immoral not to mention anti religious and speaking of which; the rule of law must be followed in this and all events. The darkness of ideology is illuminated by light. light bulbs are givers of light. To change one just after it was elected is nonsense! To seek to replace a light bulb with out giving due deference to the possibility of it potential worth is pure conservative... light bulbs are by definition liberal. They consume and give! To further bash a light bulb and the giver of light denounces the entire learning process and reduces us to cave dwellers where light and the bulbs of its deliverance are not only unnecessary but non functional... and therefore, the changing of one is moot.
Geez get a clue!

7 to say lightbulb brand A is best

7 to say lightbulb brand B is best

 

[heartsurgeon]

pick the wrong two people, and they'll never agree on how to change that bulb.
