Has anyone else noticed that the incandescent bulbs periodically ‘break’ off at the metal when unscrewing; or that the ‘threads’ just don’t quite ‘mate’ with the sockets now. Not all of them but I am finding more and more that are faulty. Curious if anyone else has noticed this.

I also notice that standard incandescent bulbs (60W and 90W) bought from Wally World or Loews aren’t lasting very long anymore. Wonder where they are being manufactured.
