Hey look, a baby Christmas tree is growing from their ceiling.
poor mans chandelier
oh… this gives meh the jolts….
*fetches a pair of insulated diagonal pliers*
*heaves a sigh of relief and calls the electrician*
*passes the inventor of this awful mess a knuckle sandwich*
“And stay down *insert many swear words here* !!!”
It snuck down from the attic last night.. And when we least expected it, CLICK! Aaaaah! The lights went on and we realized we live here. It was horrible!
Wait, I think I saw this one. Did Tim Burton direct?
Perhaps, if he was working with a small budget.
I was mistaken. It was Steven King.
Since it used 1/3 of the energy, we can use 3 of them!

Ceiling Cat was tired of just sitting back while the world went by below. After fashioning a number of light bulbs together, he lowered them from his lofty perch. Who could have predicted that one day Ceiling Cat would stop watching to investigate?
I, for one, am not pleased by this turn of events, although I can honestly say that it was only a matter of time. Ceiling cat has now left the position of remote voyeur to find a more up-close-and-personal point of view, it would seem. This is the stage of stalking where the danger really begins. Are Ceiling Cat’s inappropriate behaviors about to accelerate?
Now you can electrocute yourself with 75% less energy consumption.
LOL
best comment ever
Haha! I suppose this way, no one at the funeral will feel compelled to say, “What a waste.”
“Watt a waste”, surely?
If you keep on pulling, just like a magicians scarf, more will pop out.
Only about a dozen more lights would come out…then a couple of ceiling fans followed by a fusebox and eventually a power pole.
And know that somewhere, there’s an entire generating station now wedged up against the side of a chain link fence.
And a transmission tower imitating the tower of Pisa.
That is the ugliest art chandelier I’ve ever seen.
“Next on Fox News: Art… in this economy”
Oooooooh! Chain lightning! Aaaaaaah! Ack! Bzzzt!
I imagine the person that spliced this idea together will feel a tingling sensation of enlightenment when they finally test this.
The fact that they took the picture BEFORE throwing the switch says a lot for their confidence.
I smell an ‘after’ picture that involves fire trucks.
Or the smell of burnt hair, and the sounds made from doing CPR or the excuse to kiss someone.
In it’s own way, I guess it’s a bit like mistletoe.
*its*
First “its,” then “it’s.” Nobody come to me for help today. Not enough caffeine available.
Standard French electrics. Nothing to see, move along.
Well, certainly puts a new twist on “green”, it’s actually quite vine-like, don’t you guys think?
I don’t know about YOU guys, but I think it makes a lovely chandelier…

See the one on the bottom? It’s sad because it has to share a wire with its older brothers.
This is crying out for a pull chain.
Three plain white lamp outlets: $27:50
Six feet of three-wire cable: $15:99
Not hiring a properly trained & certified electrician to install your new lighting: $130,000 in hospital bills.
For idiots, there’s this kludge.
For everyone else, there’s trained electricians.
You still haven’t found http://www.letmetellyouhowtoproperlyperformakludge.com. It’s over there —->
As more and more bulbs came out when the electrician pulled, he started making small, frustrated noises. Silently, Nick the young magician chuckled maliciously to himself in the next room.
Watt the Volt are you talking about? Are you Green with envy?
How much more eco-friendly can one ask for? If some Ohm grows too tall, and consumes too many tree-sources, this Kludge will shockingly close their loop!
I refuse to charge this comment with an electrifying reply reusing your shocking electricity puns.
WHAT?! What was that guy thinking, not connecting the ground wires with wire nuts and not using pigtail splicing?
Talk about not conforming to code.
Wire they doing this?
I particularly like that the ground wire is connected all the way down to nothing.
Safety First!
Shockingly, I too was stunned to see three bright young bulbs off themselves.
I’ve always liked abstract art.
Having attached all the lamps at once, our highly efficient home engineer has gone back town the hall to yank the other end of the circuit *really hard*, in order to make all the fixtures pop into place on all the ceilings between here. *Then* he’ll connect the wires to the fuse box, and *then* all the lights will go on. It says so in the book.
oh good lord, somebody call the Suicide Prevention Hotline, ’cause we got a winner here for them…..
(mumbling) Tell ME I’m not bright enough to wire the house… I”LL show them bright…
For those times when one just isn’t enough.
It’s not kludge, there is proper sockets for the flicker lights there
I’ll bet it is connected to a wire in the garet.
Redneck track lighting.
Good idea! all the connections are in parallel.
Photographic evidence of Salvador Dali’s brief and unsatisfying first career as an electrician.
how did you get a pic of my husbands electrical jobs?
It’s the elusive compact florescent vine. It creates it’s own light for photosynthesis.
The invasion has begun *static* The lightbulbs *static* Send help *static* Oh god, they’re coming through the door AUUGGHHH!!! *contiuous static*
-Meanwhile, at the Pentagon- “Sir, we just got word of an invasion of fluorescent lightbulbs that are rampaging throughout the country.”
…”Dear God! Quick, turn off all the light-aarrrghhhh!!!!”
It’s green therefore it must be safe.

This is how houses burn down.
It’s so ugly that only the blind would live there.
