We got a bulb out? Psshhh... I aint maintenance.

I liked that.

 

"2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is 'lamp'"

I lol'd. Though I can't think who'd be the 2nd "industry professional".

 

Claymore and his follower........

 

Weall know Claymore would be the 1st and "most knowledgeable" industry professional.

There must be a Claymore 2.0 somewhere o_O

 

There is. His user name starts with an M and ends with an N.

 

Um . . . Can I buy a vowel?

 

Here I am, but I don't follow anybody. How come our friendly Viking can spell and use correct grammar in English better than most of the Americans? Including Ray.

 

Do tell and point out our improper grammar. I don't see any problems with mine or anyone else's.

Oh, and most Americans are stoopid (sic). And English doesn't really have the linguistic complexity other languages have that support such intelligence.

 

I meant in general, and I was not speaking of you in particular.

 

lol good stuff.

it is "lamp" ;] i still use lightbulb tho because most people get confused or argue when i say lamp. its a habit of saying lamp at work or the boss gets all bitchy.

funny post gj

 

*LAUGHS!*
This thread could get interesting.

 

lightbulb = lamp but lamp ≠ lightbulb. Because that's how it is in the technical world! *seriousface*

</sarcasm>

 

the lamp war has started...

 

Nope, it hasn't. ^_^ I don't think a war can start with a sarcastic joke. Then again, this is the interwebs...

 

yep anything can happen ;p 601 posts....heck yeah!

 

I love lamp.

 

Good job, sir! =D

 

I Don't Know Why We Are Yelling!!!!!!!!!
