Thought we may ALL need a reminder of the RULES!!

lets me use my GN name as often as I do to the younger members of the family!
Of course! Go for it! Someone, (or should that be somebody?); who cares?, has just posted that light bulbs evolve, to globes I suppose .
My 2 'kids' are 61 and 59, so I don't dare to say "when I was your age"! If only! It's all relative, I guess.
They are both still in the workforce and also now entitled to their Senior's Card, which gives me no end of amusement when we dine out and the waitress presents them with the Senior's Special menu without even asking; I always use it of course.!
Now I'm beginning to sound like a mini Methuselah and I can guess what the Doomsayers will be saying about that.!

Rufus I'm 66, which I think lets me use my GN name as often as I do to the younger members of the family!

It seems a bit much for you to have to stand on your head while you plant your bulbs, but I'm sure that is anyone can, you will probably manage it. Mind you, I don't think you would really want to do it in August where you are...

you will have confused them
Wheniwasyourage; Now who's confused?
You should be saying I'm the one to be doing headstands whilst planting them the right way up, except that I have great difficulty standing the right way up myself.
Btw; Your nickname intrigues me! I'm 91 years young. What does that make you? You don't have to answer! OoRoo

@Wheniwasyourage
Language is always evolving, bit like light bulbs!

I do wish we had a like button.

The OP made me chuckle as did the replies. Thank you all for the laughs.

Can I please be the poster who says that the OP should brighten up her grammar (with a functioning light bulb, naturally)? I think it should be "Think we may…" or "Thought we might…" Now it's somebody's turn to say that language is always evolving.

Rufus, if you bury the globes in the southern hemisphere, surely they will just grow deeper, and you will have confused them. Oh no, not if you plant them upside down, of course - duh!!

Very funny post KateyKrunch

Ha ha ha! Very funny thread!

I love that, KateyKrunch. Very clever!

AIBU to refuse to let guests use the lightbulb

Rufus2, globes are those map balls on stands. Will they really sprout flowers if we bury them?
Dunno! Depends on what fertiliser you use, but try it and see. Use the Earth globe stress relief variety, but keep one back for use if nothing shows.
I suspect they'd fare better in the Southern "emisphere"!

DD has blocked me on Facebook and is refusing to let me see my grandsons because I queried her choice of light bulb AIBU???

“My DIL and I have had a row about lightbulbs”

We have one that lights up, the DGC like it - I wonder which bulb it takes?

?? best I can do Pamela

Needs a goblet but I can’t find one so. Would that be because you can't find it in the dark? Turn the light on!

Very illuminating!

Best thread on GN at the moment. Needs a goblet but I can’t find one so...?

Bathsheba

Or the ones who posted to say that lightbulbs can’t hold a candle to, er, candles?

Perhaps they can answer the questions on Only Connect
