A newbie opens a thread and asks how to change a light bulb.
5 minutes later an experienced forum member posts detailed instructions.
5 other members post their similar experiences changing light bulbs.

3 point out the typos and grammar mistakes in the light bulb posts.
8 members are upset about the grammar experts.
9 write that this is not the right place for discussing light bulbs and this discussion should be carried on in another forum.
10 defend the thread, since we all use light bulbs and this thread therefore belongs in this forum.
21 members debate which light bulb changing method is superior, where the best light bulbs can be purchased, which kind of light bulb is best and which brands are bad quality.
6 post URLs which show light bulbs.
5 say that the previous URLs are wrong and post the right addresses.
14 quote the complete posts and write "Me too." under them.
7 announce that they will leave the forum because they can't stand these constant light bulb discussions.
1 member suggest starting a forum for electrical bits and bobs.
2 say that the help forum has already been set up for that topic.
4 suggest that the posters read the light bulb FAQ.
5 members point out old threads that have already handled this topic.
Answer: It takes 108 forum members to change one light bulb.
I found this somewhere else.

Very funny GM. The list seems to be missing the latest trend in messageboard posting where someone will try and hijack the thread by saying something like OSX does a better job of lightbulb changing then Windows does and thus turn the thread into a Microsoft/Bill Gates bashing thread.

3 members make snide unrelated remarks together in order to purposely keep the thread from getting more than 8 people who want to leave the board for better light bulb changing methods
