1/25/2003 02:49:00 AM | Timothy Lightbulb jokes Q: How many Brad Plumers does it take to change a lightbulb? A: Re: How many?. Way &@% too many with those damn union rules! But you need light to eat them babies. Yum. Q: How many Jon Eisenmans does it take to change a lightbulb? A: Just one, of course. I'm an individual. But if you say how good I am at changing the light bulb, I'll get a big head. Q: How many John Stevensons does it take to change a lightbulb? A: Well, as I told the New York Times, 'light' is a social construction that we must move beyond, so we can have a truly blind society. However, that young reporter misquoted me saying that all one need to do to aquaint oneself with the lightbulb is go up and say 'Hi! We're not so different!' I wish she had mentioned my pontification against those postmodern luminous critics who say the lightbulb must be placed in the context of the Third World labor that produces it: these radical academics do not understand the pleasure derived from enjoyment of The Work. For me, lightbulbs truly are my only lovers. Q: How many Tim Waligores does it take to change a lightbulb? A: Huh? I didn't hear what you said, but I'm sure it has something to do with the latest story on how Republicans have been racially offensive... Here's the link (via leftwing blogger). UPDATE: The New Republic has more on this. But rather than just give you the link to the article, I'm going to quote a large section of it, burying all the recent FreeDartmouth discussion on changing lightbulbs (jokes inspired by Ted Barlow, more to come later, I hope by myself and others). Q: How many Emmett Hogans does it take the change a light bulb? A: Tim, I'm tired of you liberals not realizing how dangerous it would be for Saddam to acquire weapons of mass illumination. Pathetic. Do we really need a smoking bulb?! Whatever those mamby-pamby French say, lightbulb inspections are NOT working. Bush is ABSOLUTELY right that we should invade the closet and smash the bulb!
