kylekrische Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 What type of bulb was it? 10 years ago I'm guessing standard 60w bulb? If it was too bright before (meaning like even in comparison to the other bulb in the room it just shone too brightly, not too bright for your taste) that likely means you had an imbalance somewhere on the circuit. Likely scenario would be you lost a neutral connection somewhere and all your voltages on the circuit got put out of whack. There are two things I would guess. Has any other electrical work in the house been done lately? Someone working in the panel or even something as simple as changing another lightbulb somewhere else could have effected the circuit. Or, and more likely here, there was a problem with the neutral connection on your transformer outside and hydro fixed it and now your circuits are balanced again and the bulb is getting what it actually needs finally. Or you just have a fucking ghost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tipyourbartender Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Check your filament. If it is broken and the light still comes on, call a paranormal electrician If it is still intact, then the bulb never burnt out. It lost power and found it again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 you can see if it's an electrical problem by running your finger under some water and sticking it in the socket. Brock N Roll 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or better yet, a fork. That'll give you a better idea of its conduction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tug Posted May 6, 2016 Author Share Posted May 6, 2016 an electrician told me to lick it but i had burnt my tongue on brown sauce earlier in the day so i had my son lick it and now he says the taste of light bulb won't leave his mouth...the bulb no longer lights up but my son's smile is lighting up like the sun.

rooks Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 that's all that matters in the end isn't it? as long as your closet is clean, the used is still the greatest band alive, and your son is smiling... what else is there, really?
