Joke Bulb

Light bulbs that behave in funny ways.

Turn on this bulb and it can emulate a burn-out and then come back on in a few seconds. Or it can: Fill the room with smoke of burning tungsten. Act like a strobe light at freqencies that cause headaches.. Make rude/destructive noises when turned on. Blow off the lamp shade at random times. Turns itself on for a second when removed from the socket.

Does the burn-out smoke the good stuff?

Yeah, yeah, I get it--if it worked for Bill Gates it should work for any other product. Gives people something to obsess over and feel superior to, helps them bond together with a common cause.
