1 to ask "What light bulb?",
2 insisting that it doesn't need changing anyway,
3 demanding the voltage be increased by 5 orders of magnitude to simply overcome the resistance of the broken filament,
4 describing Faraday cages they have built around said light bulb,
5 demanding someone else stick a finger into the empty socket to see if the switch is on or off.
I nearly did myself an injury imagining skits the Python team could have concocted if Usenet had been around in their heyday!
