An Apology

[Neil D]

What was the joke?  I demand the right to be offended.

How many forum posters does it take to change a light bulb?

- 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
- 27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs
- 53 to flame the spell checkers
- 41 to correct spelling/grammar flames
- 6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another
- 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive
- 2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"
- 27 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs
- 14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's
- 12 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy
- 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ
- 44 to ask what is a "FAQ"
- 4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"
- 143 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs"
- 1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again


EDIT: -1 Moderator to close all the threads which contain's word "lightbulb

**of course this was nicked from another forum.

If this was nicked from somewhere else, MJG, it was a bloody good nick.
It's funny 'cos it's true.
I think you could add, at about no.3, "6 to repeat exactly the same method of changing the lightbulb due to not having bothered to read a post made ten minutes before."  -  and possibly,
" 1 to post about tulips having completely misunderstood the original post."

Keep joking, Mr Peabody.

Boy meets girl... girl meets moose.... boy falls in love with wombat who already swings both ways with sloths and girl has nosebleed..... boom boom (anyone upset?)

In all seriousness Neil, i didn't read the joke, but i respect Mr P's intent not to offend, so i detached myself. There is a thread, which has been locked. I wish people would look at intent, rather than words... maybe there'd be more laughs in this world.

Don't give in to them Bill. I, for one am 110% with you m8.

Blin....if they don't like it THEY can .....go

Years ago, I knew this very strange guy who was the only person I ever met who could tell ethnic jokes that didn't offend any single group. Here's an example [and I'm NOT joking here]:

"Two ethnics walk into a bar. One ethnic looks at the other ethnic and says ... ."

There is absolutely no need to apologise My Man .................... for me the bones of the joke came out with a raft of others when that little blue  umpa  pill hit the market.  IMO it  wasn't  funny then.  Twenty years later, adding a few begorras  hasn't made it any funnier.

The Rafeeeeeeeeeeee on the Rock (Too much Sun, gin,  everything really ) decided to ape around  064.gif geddit  !!!


Any good KerryMan jokes ??????? I'll get you started


A Kerryman attended a concert where a ventriloquist who fancied himself as a comedian told about twenty Kerryman jokes in a row.
'Look', shouted the Kerryman, standing up in the audience,
'I'm fed up being insulted by all these jokes. We're not as stupid as you make out'.
'Please sit down sir and be calm', said the ventriloquist, 'after all it's only a joke, and don't tell me that Kerrymen haven't got a sense of humour'.
'I'm not talking to you', said the Kerryman,. I'm talking to that little fellow on your knee'.

i am a kerry man brilliant stuff haha
