From Antick Musings, publishing light-bulb jokes: A few samples:
Q. How many copyeditors does it take to change a lightbulb?
A. The last time this question was asked, it involved art directors. Is the difference intentional? Should one or the other instance be changed? It seems inconsistent.Q. How many publishers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A. Three. One to screw it in, two to hold down the author.

Though “how many Zen Masters does it take to change a lightbulb? Three. One to change the lightbulb….” has it’s charms.
Re: That song

I heard it as “Four. One to change the light bulb and three to debate the political correctness of the verb “to screw”.

I thought the response to that was, “THAT’S NOT FUNNY!”
Re: That song

Re: That song
I’ve also heard it as “Five. One to screw it in and four to form a support group to help the socket process its feelings of violation and exploitation.”
