How many perverts does it take to screw in a "lightbulb"?
1, but it takes a whole surgical team to get it out.

Holy crap! That is perfect! Chris fits into the category, where he will be trying to convince everybody that it is "light bulb" Chris always seems to have a space in a word where it doesn't belong. (Although lightbulb can be spelt either way)

I think its quite amusing actually - to read thru the original post, then through each response and it is so true, as it was said, the joke was proven entirely accurate and there are a fair few of the regular members who havent posted on here that would totally fit into at least one of the categories!
I would suggest that we create a list of members and insert them into each category - BUT - It would probably end up with people mad at each other, so its probably best not to!
and Locke - take a look at the threads on the board, do you see anything more interesting... obviously not because you also posted here!!

Hmm, I didn't think of anyone taking the lightbulb out. Good one!
Ah, not that I don't mind yelling at people when I really have no reason, but I think Locke was being sarcastic and joking about that, DD lol. Could be wrong, but I thought he was anyway lol.
Oops. my last post was supposed to have a at the end, and had a ") instead...I was being sarcasting Lilmiss
