If you want to turn on the light, you first have to reach over and turn on the light switch…
Just put your hand on its flippy thing and turn it on. You know it’s turned on with its point upwards. (Usually)
I hate how much this made me laugh hahaha
We need a c/BoneHurtingJuice
Yes, actually LOL’d here.
There’s three, this is the only active one !bonehurtingjuice@lemmy.ca
For a moment, I was trying to overcomplicate this and didn’t get it. Then it clicked.

A lightbulb moment, if you will
It threw me off, but I caught on.
Then it switched or you could say the light bulb went off in your head.
Same
Lol
People who go “wow it’s dark in here”, turn all the lights on, then leave, who were never really affected by the situation, should all burn in hell.
Precisely. If it’s dark, it’s dark for a reason. At the very least, ask whoever’s in the room if you can put the light on. When I’m dealing with a light-induced headache, putting on the light is a form of torture.
Lollllll me_irl
I’m sure these are the same people that browse everything in light mode
Antimeme or do I just not know something?
More of a BoneHurtingJuice but basically same principle
If your lights are on, then you know.
OMG so real!
Some of us know but keep the damn things off anyway
The truly enlightened
Illuminated.
Sometimes the dark is more comfortable
European style switches are off with the top half pressed in and on when the bottom half is pressed in (multiway switches excluded). This is a hill I’m willing to die on and I will be looking down on installers doing it otherwise.
I’ve always been in houses where there are multiple switches in different rooms existing for the same light for convenience, so I judge the on/off state of a switch by whether or not it’s currently dark somewhere lol
My house has them both ways because fuck your expectations lol
Up should be on because they’re both 2 letters, and together make the word “upon”.
Source?
This happens in rooms that have 2 panels, and when it does skill cross a room 2x to get them back to up=on.
We turn things UP to increase and DOWN to decrease. I’m not going to die on this hill but I will do everything I can behind the scenes to erode and undermine the hill of the enemy. Up to and including using my multi tool to flip your switches upside down. For the realm.
I swear that I’m the only person in my office that knows where the break room light switch is. I’ve seen it full of people with the light off
Maybe they like it like that.
Can you imagine?
All the homies chillin and having a good time in the break room. Then mr. Big Light comes in and flashbangs everyone, ruining the vibe. lmao
Also me when I have a brain fart and flick the switch thinking I’m turning it on when it’s already on, so I turn it off instead.
Light switches killed my grandpappy
