A lightbulb joke is a joke that asks how many people of a certain group are needed to change, replace, or screw in a light bulb. Generally, the punch line answer highlights a stereotype of the target group. There are numerous versions of the lightbulb joke satirizing a wide range of cultures, beliefs and occupations.
For instance:
- Q. How many Polacks does it take to change a light bulb?
- A. Three—one to hold the light bulb and two to turn the ladder.
- Q. How many dimwits does it take to screw in a light bulb?
- A. 5 (1 om the ladder with a light bulb and the other 4, one on each leg of the ladder turn it around.)
