How many cartoonists does it take to change a lightbulb? I don’t know, but I do know one isn’t enough. I’ve been working on one bulb replacement in a bathroom for over a month. Must be a trick to it.pic.twitter.com/ZbIaLZ5Os7

What was the trick?
Don't leave us hanging... What was the solution? Just keep stuffing bulbs in in different orientations until one worked?
After watching YouTube videos of people trying to change these bulbs, I concluded that some finite amount of “wiggling and forcing” would get it done. I don’t force until I know there is no other trick to it.
Don't say you read the instructions.
Actually I’d like a micro lesson on this one. I’ve never seen lightbulbs like that and it scares me.
These are common in commercial settings. Gently wiggle it while pulling down. Popping sounds are okay, crunching sounds are bad. New one pushes straight in with tabs in correct orientation.
Twitter is too helpful, ruining my estimated times by a factor of 100.
What was the fix?
... let me guess ... it was much easier when you realized it needed to be plugged in ... vs. all that time you spent trying to screw it in. DOH! 



I replaced every 'can' fixture in my house using those horrid CFL bulbs with standard base screw LED bulbs. Removed the ballast and plugged in an adapter. Bathroom and hanging fixtures were removed and replaced. Worth the four hours of work.
The last straw, after just moving in to the house, was when I tried to replace a dead plug-in bulb and it shattered when I tried to unscrew it. Evil design. No visual clue to its dark nature.
