CFLs, or, those horrible curly bulbs

Print Friendly Email this article

I’ve ranted about these torturous things a number of times, but this time, not a rant. Instead, a ROFL.

I read a number of blogs, and like to read blogs that span the political spectrums. One blog in particular is populated by people that are practically militant in their left-wing philosophy. Recently they were talking about the curly bulbs, or more correctly, the CFL bulbs.

It seems I’m not the only person who hates them. But person after person said “I’m not buying them until they improve them. Until then, I’m stocking up on incandescent bulbs.”

This is hilarious! This is a group of people who (seriously) want to take away SUVs from people, force them to drive whatever vehicle is on the approved list, or worse, force people to take public transport. They want hunters to stop (with government force) hunting, people to get windmills and solar panels, and so on. They’re part of the DO SOMETHING crowd. They insist that the government DO SOMETHING to stop the madness of environmental homicide/suicide/destruction/whatever.

And apparently they’re also part of Al Gore’s “Do As I Say, But Screw You, I’m Keeping My House Warm and Taking My Private Plane” club.

This makes my day. It’s just so kooky and fun and made me laugh.

I really love all this nonsense that some people tell the rest of us how we’re supposed to live our lives, then turns out they’re humping the pooch while telling everyone to avoid bestiality. Or in this case, ruining the environment with evil bulbs because NOBODY LIKES THE CURLY ONES!

Here’s a little something along the same lines, but I’m not commenting. Just linking.

Happy New Year to me! Now all I need is a moose to cross my path, and if it looks like dinner, I’m shooting.
