SLPT: Lightbulb not screwing in easily? Switch the light on, lick your finger tip and rub it inside the lightsocket.

Bulb will go in like a charm afterward!

Almost 10 years ago, I was hanging.. maybe paper lanterns?.. in my dining room, and there was track lighting, so I was like, cool, I can just hang one off the inside of the track.

I vaporized the little metal wire when it touched the second side. I'm glad that was the worst of it. Loud pop scared the shit out of me.

I also learned how track lighting works that day. So, you know, upside?

Sometimes it needs a little love to get it in.
