Sadjoe, haha !

You forgot: WOsB (War on some bulbs)

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

Oh, and some more DU troll posts:

No blood for lumens!

Bush stole the bulb. Gore got more watts. Bush's greedy bulb grab shows that the bulb was 'selected, not defective!'

I support AUWWW (Artist United to Win without Wattage)

We had a huge bulb surplus that Bush squandered giving undeserved bulbs to the rich!

America deserved to have its bulb break for the shameful way we treat lower-quality bulbs in electricity-deprived countries!

I hate Bush because he doesn't support same-bulb fixtures. If it were up to him, he'd round up all homobulbists and put them in recycling camps!

Sad, really, that I can so easily come up with jokes at their expense. But funny nonetheless.

I'm slow --- my laughter had me stopped dead in my tracks!

Should have known you'd do the dirty work!

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
