How many AH participants does it take to change a lightbulb?

[desecration]

That reminds me I gotta get off the internet and go do something useful for a change. Good luck you all. I'm looking forward to the new round of stories in the Office Space category.

 

[TheLobster]

One if we're pantsing, at least a dozen if we are planning.

 

[AwkwardlySet]

Infinite.

 

[LoneMilf]

About 6:

1 to do the research
1 to write the instructions - in exquisite flowery detail
1 to edit the instructions
1 to decide on categories and tags for the instructions
1 to post threads about the instructions to drum up interest
1 to complain about follow up on comments and ratings of the instructions
0 to actually follow the instructions - we'll leave that for the readers to do

 

[SimonDoom]

One to do the actual screwing.

Maybe a dozen or so to tell the one he/she is doing it wrong.

Another dozen will say screwing in light bulbs violates Site rules, or even if it doesn't it should.

Some more will say, "That gives me a story idea!" Whether they write it is a different matter.

@EmilyMiller will chide people for not being more positive about lightbulb screwing.

And, of course, @Bamagan will post a photo of a nubile, topless woman screwing in a lightbulb.

 

[StillStunned]

No-one will change the lightbulb. They'll all just explain how their own lightbulb is the best.

Only because I'm a partisan of darkness and actively oppose the spread of unwanted light.

 

[Kelliezgirl]

1 to change the bulb.
6 to provide links to their story that involved changing lightbulbs.

 

[TarnishedPenny]

Ah, but what category of lightbulb?

 

[Boobytrap73]

At least one to tell the old joke about the difference between a woman and a lightbulb (only one can be unscrewed)

[NoTalentHack]

You know what, I'd love to change your lightbulb, but I really do need to get some work done on mine. Maybe next time?

 

[AlinaX]

I use LEDs, whatever they are.

 

[samhasstories]

I would be able to change lightbulbs much faster, and subsequently be able to change much more lightbulbs, if I didn't keep stopping in the middle of screwing it in and decide I want to change it a different way.

 

[Kumquatqueen]

I don't know, but if any of you do and could pop round to change the sidelight bulb in my car, that would be great.

 

[Bramblethorn]

None. Only Laurel and Manu can change things here.

How many AH participants does it take to change a lightbulb?​

None, a real writer isn't afraid of the dark

I see my brief absence has had absolutely no effect on the quality of threads…

I’ll let myself out.

@EmilyMiller will chide people for not being more positive about lightbulb screwing.

Now is that screwing a lightbulb, or being screwed by a lightbulb, or screwing in a lightbulb (maybe a pixie and fairy love story)?

Thinking out loud, using a candle bulb as a butt plug would add a certain frisson. Or a trip to the ER.

I need answers.

[Britva415]

Just one, but it will have to wait until they change the other half-dozen lightbulbs they started changing and haven't finished. Or maybe they'll just start another one first.

 

[samhasstories]

screwing in a lightbulb (maybe a pixie and fairy love story)

I think you're onto something here. That's how the blackout of 2003 was finally ended.

Here's my favorite lightbulb joke

How many real women does it take to change a lightbulb?

None, a real woman won't try to change a lightbulb. She'll accept it for what it is.

 

[Trionyx]

One, if her name is Emily. She can do both AC and DC bulbs.

 

[EmilyMiller]

One, if her name is Emily. She can do both AC and DC bulbs.

I feel my ears burning, or is it my…

 

[CalebZhass]

I think one would be sufficient, but it would take about a week for the bulb to be approved and allowed to turn on.
