lol probaly is.

hahahahahahaha...thought the exact same thing b4 I looked at the comments!! loooool :P

Wow that is totally and utterly rude, you fuckshit.

Appropriate response to someone making a status quo joke? I think so!

Calm down 48. I am blonde and know other blondes who would not take offense to this comment. Calm your tits

"Fuckshit" LOL

LOL...

why would you be touching the metal? Unless the other lightbulb shattered or something.

I don't see the problem... I don't turn the switch off to change a light bulb... just don't look directly at the bulb when you screw it in... but even if you do... it isn't something that suddenly makes your life FML worthy.

i keep it off and change it in the day. I have 7 different lights in my room :)

You could electrocute yourself if not careful, it's always safe to turn off the switch

I don't understand why he is getting down voted so much. The only way to get electrocuted is if you directly touch the metal, which I do not see why would be necessary when changing a light bulb.

wow #8 and #3 are you guys stupid or just never changed a light bulb before when the light went on it shocked him

Ok first things first, I'm an electrician and 120V really doesn't hurt that much, it's more of a tingle really, so suck it up princess. Second, you only get a shock from that if your fingers are actually in the socket, so if that's what you're bitching about then you sir, are a dumbass of the highest order and deserve that zap.

hooray!

Haahah. You just made my day ten times better.

woop awesome :D

In most parts of Europe (France included), the line voltage is 220V - not that it made much of a difference, but it's a bit more than a tingle, especially if you're not used to the sensation and if instead of your finger shorting the circuit, the electricity goes from your fingertip to your feet.

Was half expecting " first things first RIP uncle OP"

It probably wasn't the pain OP received from the lightbulb that made this a FML. It was the fact his wife actually turned on the damn lights

Brutal, but I can agree with this.

Still. Safety first!

#10, you just made my day.

first #1: being blonde has nothing to do with it
that's pretty much just a stupid/rude comment proving your ignorance

and second,

wow. WOW. i'm surprised, and sort of not at the same time..

doesn't anyyyyyone THINK anymore?

*sigh* cant anyone take a joke nowadays...?

You're not in a position to call a comment stupid. Look at your grammar!

P.S - I'm not saying I am!

Being blonde has everything to do with it.

No it doesn't. I'm blonde and I change lightbulbs all the time, and have never gotten hurt.
