Nineteen to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb (or light bulb) forum.
Eleven to defend the posting to the group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this group.
Thirty six to debate which method of changing lightbulbs is superior, where to buy the best lightbulbs, what brand of lightbulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty.
Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of different lightbulbs.
Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL.
Three to post URLs found when following the aforementioned URLs.
Thirteen to quote 5-paragraph posts in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and then add "Me too" or "+1".
Five to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot mentally handle the lightbulb controversy, or because the question will just encourage a popularity contest or a "steel base vs. plastic base" discussion.
Four to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"
Thirteen to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting easy questions about light bulbs."
Three to tell a funny story about their cat and a light bulb.
Nine to ramble on about how those liberal bastards want to take away all lightbulbs, and then sum it all up with a lame pun about Rosie O'Donnell choking on a 'fish taco'.

Five who get pissed over a joke that they probably didn't get in the first place.
Fifteen to argue which is more important; wattage or bulb placement.
Four to say that they only buy custom made lightbulbs.
