QUESTION: How many people does it take to change a lightbulb on UHH?

ANSWER:
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.
17 purists who use candles and are offended by light bulb discussions.
6 to argue over whether it's 'lightbulb' or 'light bulb'.
Another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid.
22 to tell THOSE 6 to stop being jackasses.
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 page is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a light bulb page.
11 to defend the posting to this page saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant here.
36 People to post pics of their own light bulbs.
15 People to post "I can't see S$%^!" and use their own light bulbs.
6 to report the post or PM an admin because someone said "f÷×$"
4 to say "Didn't we go through this already a short time ago?".
13 to say "Do a search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs".
1 to bring politics into the discussion by adding that (insert politician of choice) isn't the brightest bulb. This usually takes place within the first three comments.
50 more to get into personal attacks over their political views.
5 admins to ban the light bulb posters who took it all too seriously.
1 late arrival to comment on the original post 6 months later and start it all over again.

1 to point out “your apostrophe is misplaced”
5 to say “misplaced” should be “mis-placed”
1 to ask what does it have to do with photography

I will never understand why the "F" word has to be included or even inferred in everyday conversation. Don't understand what it adds to the discussion.

List is right on the money. A small part of the enjoyment I get from this website (apart from purely photographic ideas and knowledge) is the occassional snarky, sometimes childish bickering disguised as commentary in the General Chit-Chat section. Gotta love the interweb!

Not to forget 50 highjackers who will discuss which editing app best sorts the white balance.
