Lightbulbs: illegal, as of 1 sept

Time to stock up on those old bulbs, folks... ;P

Much like when analogue keyboards got phased out only to resurface a decade latter as super expensive collectors items - there is an opportunity for someone to stock up on incandescent bulbs - and sell them at outrageous prices in the future.

People could buy them for special occasions like dinner parties and moth baiting.

I'm done with this bulb thread.

That's a shame as your presence was illuminating it.

it's threads like this that light up my life.

pfft... its fila mentals.

current affairs, stay with us man!

screw me you need bayoneting for that one.

i know, its thursday and i have already lost that spark.

perhaps a flash of inspiration is required.

You lot are dim if you think I'm sticking around on this thread. I'm glowing.

someone will go on manufacturing them. there's a 1970s minimalist artist called dan flavin whose art uses fluorescent bulbs.

the bulbs he used are no longer manufactured by the original company, so the estate of dan flavin has started making them. the bulbs originally sold for about $10 each. but now flavin owners can buy them for several hundred dollars (depending on the colour).
