Just AstroChuck.

Just one of them. They’re all extra smart anyway.

I’m a union electrician. I guess that means 3 or 4. LOL

If I am included, 2.

Depends on watt you mean by change.

Hahaaaaaa sueanne….it was corny but somehow I laughed….that is rare…that is rare.

All it takes is lurve.

We don’t change light bulbs, we just hunch over our computers by the faint blue glow all night long…..

Does the lightbulb need to be changed? Have shilolo diagnose it.

dalepetrie can inform you about any political ramifications of lightbulb changing.

Maybe it just needs a pep talk from PnL and it’ll perk right back up.

If we give him google, a pair of pliers, and 20 minutes, Harp can probably invent a lightbulb that never needs to be changed.

richardhenry could probably talk the lightbulb into changing itself….

<stands and applauds nikipedia>

plus lurve

I think Nikipedia could change it remotely, just by using her awesome brain power.

Depends on if they have an internet connection.

1 to change it and 50 to debate the process.

Not sure how many, but it would be a change we can believe in.

hear, hear!

It had better be energy-efficient, too. And solar-powered.

What if it’s in the frizzer?

…and the frizzer was under the pool?

And the missing child was under the frizzer!

No, I think the kid was running from the frizzer.

Don’t throw the old one out! You can make a used lightbulb into a cheap vaporizer.

i was actually going to respond with that pete, and then decided against it LOL. lightbulb vaps ftw :P

So, I just have to ask… How many lightbulbs does it take to make a cheap vaporizer in the frizzer?

27

42

Did the light-bulb recently break up with you?
Did you recently break up with the light bulb?
Can you eat the light-bulb, because we lurve to talk about food!
Does the light-bulb lean to the left or right?
What is the sexual orientation of the light-bulb?
Is the light-bulb more Mac or PC oriented?
SO many questions…we need more info!!

And more lightbulbs!!!

Amen to that loser.
Light bulbs for everyone!

All you need is lurve.

That could be a cool t-shirt motto,
“Lurve & lightbulbs for everyone!”

Does the light bulb need changing? Can’t we just learn to love it as it is?

Maybe you need to change. And by “you” I mean the “royal you.” or something

Lightbulb zen! Somebody should write a book about this!

four hundred and sixty three

463? That’s a well loved lightbulb!!!

You got it? Be careful! Now don’t drop it…

1369.

I’m. Confused.

…and thus the lightbulb never was changed.

But now at least we know how it could be changed.

..but would it be changed for the better?

Change is scary. Change is good. Embrace the change.

Spare the change!

You need to BE the change you want to see in the light-bulb.

I can’t see the lightbulb because it needs to be changed!!!

If you can’t see the light bulb does it exist? If it doesn’t exist does it need to be changed? If it does’t need to be changed is it broken?

Oh, it exists. If not in the physical world, then collectively in all of our minds. So if we say it needs to be changed, it needs to be changed.

Do we all agree that it needs to be changed?

Aye.

I don’t know if it needs to be changed; maybe it needs to be loved and appreciated just the way it is. Why do we feel the need to change the bulb, can’t we just simply let it be? Or is that our lives are so dark we feel the necessity to change the bulb in order to lighten our otherwise bleak lives?

@bythebay: You make a good point— it isn’t such a bad light bulb, but I really think it ought to be changed. We can get by without a working light, after all, we have the sum of the light from our collective brains to rely on, but ultimately, life is easier when we have a working light bulb. We don’t want the old bulb just sitting around, loved but without purpose. Like I said before, we can make him into a vaporizer. That way he’ll still be around, and he’ll have a new purpose. It’s not like we’d throw him in the garbage, or worse, in the frizzer. I really believe it would be in everyone’s best interest to change the light bulb.

Well, Pete, you were so respectful and considerate in your answer I am compelled to try and see things from your perspective. Maybe it wold be good for the lightbulb, to get a fresh start and have purpose again. We all need purpose, we all want to be wanted and useful. You’re right, pete. Thank you for helping me to see the light.

I think Pete should get the first hit off the old bulb!

Aww, thanks loser.

What an enlightening thread! I feel somehow brighter.

Certainly brightened my day!

Youll only feel brighter once the bulb is changed.

I don’t know, Lightly seared…I feel lighter already!

You’re positively glowing!

Knot, dear heavens, I hope I’m not pregnant!

Let me hold you up to the light and check. Oh wait, it’s out.

Watt are you gonna do now?

Perhaps a good screw (clockwise of course) will bring that glow back.

“Watt” is too cliché.

[edit for richardhenry]: changed è to é because it makes such a difference to him and his foreign backrounds.
:þ

Sorry to nitpick, but it’s cliché, not clichè.

Ahhhh, cprevite – that good screw could actually create the proverbial glow! blushing Watt’s a girl to do?

This darn lightbulb is turning in to quite the conundrum.

Lightbulbs are just like that. I mean, IF you change it, do you know watt watt you want?

Ahhh, well, screwing is better in the dark, anyway!

<applauding syz’s answer!>

@90s_kid: Low hanging fruit my friend. Low hanging fruit.

How many Flutherers does it take to change a lightbulb?

The world may never know.

Pete is awesome.

Pete! Dude, that’s a riot!!! Great job!!!

Fantastic pete!! Major lurve.

827,345 fluthers

I miss this thread.

Oh my god, Pete.

That is the best thing ever.

Wait….we all have eight arms…right?? AND therefore we can climb ladders at the speed of sound, right? AND therefore change four light bulbs simultaneously, right?

BUT….we’re, like, wet. Soaking wet. Like, 98% wet. I foresee more problems than solutions here…..

How many Flutherers does it take to change a lightbulb?

Two. The trick is getting them in there.

Dang. I was so excited to answer that I didn’t notice the question, I just cut and pasted. Ha! That should be:

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

Two. The trick is getting them in there.

I just read this thread for the first time. Absolute perfection!

23. That’s my answer and I’m sticking to it!

This is how it will go down on Fluther: Somebody will notice that the light bulb is out and needs to be changed. Someone will come along and post a nasty reply for stating the obvious. A mod will come along and remove that comment as a personal attack. Someone else will come along and say it should be replaced with a newer energy efficient bulb. The OP will reply that energy efficient bulbs are not as energy efficient as advertized because they’re more complex and take more resources and energy to manufacture. A huge flame war will ensue. About week later, someone will suggest we heal all the hurt feelings from the flame war by having a cake and pizza party. The light bulb will be forgotten.

Watt was the question?

OK, folks there is a problem with the lights on Fluther. Can one of you guys check the lightbulb?

Fluther 1 Do you have any proof there is a fault?

Fluther 2 Well shouldn’t we should at least check and go see for ourselves?

Fluther 3 No, definitely not. Crooked Hillary stole a light bulb once. She should be in prison.

Fluther 4 That is quite different, was investigated at the time and is hardly relevant.

Fluther 5 You are blinded by your hatred of Trump.

Fluther 6 No we’re blinded by it being dark in there.

Fluther 7 This is outrageous, there is no evidence Trump committed any crime.

Fluther 8 No one says he has. Why are you so worried? We’ve simply sent Mueller down with a torch to investigate.

Fluther 9 Mueller works for the FBI, rearrange the letters and it spells FIB. We can’t trust anything he says. He should be sacked.

Fluther 10. Well let’s wait for Mueller’s report. If the bulb has failed we can replace it. Can’t we?
