Tominator Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 My mom used to say that all the time..."how's come..." Doesn't make sense, but anyway. How come Christmas lights work one year, and not the next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 If I remember correctly from National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, there is a switch in the back room that you have to flip up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 My mom used to say that all the time..."how's come..." Doesn't make sense, but anyway. How come Christmas lights work one year, and not the next? Its a conspiracy by the lighting people... They just want your hard earned cash.

TBow Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 O.K. Here's a couple "how's come" that's sort'a related: 1. How's come you can buy a new string of lights with 32+ bulbs for less than it costs to buy 2 small packages of replacement bulbs with 5 bulbs in each package? 2. How's come you can buy a new "All-in-One" printer for your computer (complete with new printer cartridges) for about the same or even less sometimes than just the replacement cartridges for your old printer? How's come? TBow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
