PS- I posted this in my regional forum, but thought the rest of y'all might like to read it too.

LMAO

Humm..

I've had a similar experience of laughing while reading a funny post, how could this funny post have been made funny differently.

you forgot to add the part where the light bulb discussion turns into liberal/conservative argument with some Biblical arguments sprinkled on top.

not to mention the part where the link posted has a hot chick in a bikini holding light bulbs and people start shouting NWS!

Its rare that I laugh out loud while reading a post but that one definitely got me!!!

hahah that's great!

10 to ask whether the lightbulb has an American or Japanese name on it, 10 more to point out that the Japanese bulbs are built by American union light bulb makers, and yet another 10 to say, "Whatever, enjoy your import" and go off to have sex with their cousins.

17 To argue what temp. or watts of light bulb to buy

True stuff!
