Just two. The trick is gettin' em in there!

I figure it takes Andrew to screw it in and about 200 of the rest of us to complain how he's not doing it fast enough and oh what will we do without the light, etc.

13.

one to start a lightbulbs: c/d? thread,
five to argue that lightbulbs are, in fact, dud,
three to make inappropriate sexual innuendoes about lightbulbs and the insertion thereof,
one to ask wot is teh lightbulb,
one to say GET ONE LIGHTBULB,
and two to derail the thread entirely.

Or perhaps it takes 2: one to screw it in, and Dan Perry to make a joke about them screwing it in. In this case it helps if person #1 is Ned Raggett.

60, all of them Canadian.

it depends whether the lightbulb is classic or dud.

Is the lightbulb in a lamp on chuck eddy's writing desk?

― .adam (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 5 January 2005 20:03 (twenty years ago)

There's 60 Canadians?

Probably a small number to actually screw the bulb in, but a much larger number to argue at great length about wether the bulb should have been replaced or not, wether "the dark" is a "problematic definition" and so on.

Two to accuse Momus of lying about the broken condition of the bulb.

Not forgetting Calum's poorly disguised desire to have the lightbulb inserted into his anus rather than into the lamp.

three years pass...

How many people of a particular social or ethnic group does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

A finite number. One to screw in the lightbulb and the rest to behave in a manner stereotypical of that group.

Our kitchen needs new lightbulbs! Thx for the reminder!
