P.S.

If you marry the lightbulb you won't have to worry about changing it, it will spend the rest of your life trying to change you.

4 will try to figure out how to skin the bulb and another 5 on top of that will try to crack the shell and skin the filaments (and probably succeed).

How many skinners does it take to change a light bulb?

Is this before they skin it or after? It is important to know because if they did, then someone will email them saying that they want to put thier work in a magazine... but the magazine has nudity and heaven knows what else... and they get it back and it has so much 'screwing' in it...

It could happen just like that.

Don't forget that probably 5 or 7 will link to an image of light bulbs to amuse people on the thread.

As long as nobody tries to punch out your lights it's hunky dory.

1 person forgets about the light bulb and grabs a flaming torch to go hide in the corner mumbling to himself about how fire is so much suppior to modern light

Let's not forget the egocentrics who just hold up the bulb and wait for the world to revolve around them and admire their genius...

MadIce, sorry, but that was too close to a personal attack.
I hesitated for a bit, but decided to delete your post.
Reply #43 from WinCustomize Forums Top
Sorry, paxx. It was not intended to be a personal attack. Must have been too close to reality.

1 will complain that he hasn't received his serial number for the light bulb yet and bombard Stardock Support with mail...Probably should come to this thread; All the information you want and don't.

Some skinners will not bother changing the light bulb, but send an error report to Microsoft claiming that a virus has deleted the "Lightbulb.exe" file. They will also explain that this has had a considerable effect on the running of their computer, and then go on to write a lecture on power consumption.

Litestep help forums are littered with the corpses of Lightbulb users. Lightbulbs are just dumbed-down candles for people who want all their work done for them. Whale oil, all the way... and you have to kill the whale yourself, and filters suck...
