It was a Republican light bulb.

I hope the dog was in a kennel, or at the vet’s office overnight.

I already volunteered to be the code enforcer on this one! Hahaha?!!?!!
So many side effects from the new bulbs and none on the old.

Today, you’re laughing.

Tomorrow ...

I bought a large stock of 100W lightbulbs, back when I could. There are a couple of spots where I use them because even high quality LED fixtures don’t come on fast enough in cold weather.

Come and take them, Feebs!

If it were true, it would be the first thing that agency had ever unscrewed in its history.

Seth has just made the FBIs “naughty” list and secured himself a billet in a re-education camp under the coming Harris administration....

Could be worse.

Could be a broken fluorescent bulb, and the EPA nuke the site from orbit, just to be sure no one dies from the 0.004 grams (+or -) of mercury that was in it.

Reminds me of the old cartoon with a couple military tanks pointed toward a house.

What happened asks a bystander.

He took the tag off his mattress.

Here’s something to think about:

Every LED bulb is a potential ‘listening device’..................

LOL! One FBI guy to hold the bulb and the rest to turn the chair he’s standing on.

This would be even funnier if it weren’t actually possible under this Administration.

I recall when Bush II signed this garbage into law, as there was a couple threads here on FR about it. I recall some Freepers being in favor of it. Such persons are totally unaware that ban was taking away just one more freedom, freedom of choice. No where in the Constitution does it allow for such garbage to be federally mandated.

I noticed this morning that Amazon still has the same incandescent heat lamps and halogen shop lamb bulb replacements that they had last week.

When Kalifornia first banned the 100w incandescent light bulb, I put RIP on one of them, and placed it on my desk. When people started asking what? why? I guided the discussion to the heavy hand of government banning business. Imagine you and your family working for generations, and then one day the government just bans your business. If they can do it to your neighbor (light bulb) they can do it to you tomorrow.

LOL, I have two in my basement that have been there for over 10 years. Use it to keep pipes warm on winter nights.
