1 to change the bulb and to post that the bulb has been changed

9 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently

1 to conduct a poll on whether it’s

1: DRIVING LIGHTBULB

6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb"

6 more to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive

3 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs

1 to flame the spell checkers

7 to caution about the dangers of touching light bulbs

2 Germans to inform the board that the proper term is driving "lamp"

4 Australians to inform the Germans it’s actually called a "torch"

5 know-it-alls who claim they heard instructors at Spartanburg call it a “driving light bulb” and that must be correct

8 to post that this section is not about light bulbs and for moderators to please move this to OT

12 to defend the posting to this area saying that we all have driving light bulbs so therefore the posting should be relevant

4 to post that Greg has a video online showing how to change light bulbs

44 to post that light bulbs never went out in past cars that they owned

24 to debate the video’s method of changing light bulbs

3 to ask where they can import 7500K light bulbs

33 ask in shock if that light bulb price is in YEN or something?

7 to post links where one can see examples of different driving light bulbs on other cars

6 to respond that the links only showed light bulbs installed in rice cars

2 to post that one of those cars belonged to “Jimmy” and that Jimmy knew light bulbs

1 to post that Jimmy had blue bulbs

5 to ask if Dinan made light bulbs

2 to say that even if they did, they would not be covered under warranty

11 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"

3 to post to that they will no longer post because they cannot handle this light bulb controversy

2 to quote the "Me too's" and say "Me three"

4 to suggest that the poster should have looked to see if there was an FAQ on the board

14 to ask what an "FAQ" is

Aussi you've got waaay too much free time!

[BmwNut]

Maybe it is the Thursday night session, but that was hysterical! You know a good comedian b/c you keep saying "it's so true."
So move this to OT already...

Too funny... I was surprised Dinan only got one line.

[foxyboym5]

ME TOO

[raveiz]

That's just too funny

I'm not sure if that was funny or humorous. I've had lots of experience with funny, and it always seemed pretty humorous in a funny sort of way. Humorous was always a little less funny, and not quite as appealing in a humorous way as funny. Anybody else had any experience with funny vs. humorous? Can you direct me to any mpegs so I can compare the two?
