Back when we were building the house, the world was transitioning away from incandescent light bulbs. Seeing the way the winds were blowing, I told my parents repeatedly that we should get LED-compliant light fixtures around the house. For some reason my dad insisted we get CFL. It was a thing, don't get me wrong, but I knew that the standard was going to be LED. But after many fights later, dad won and got his CFL.
Years later the bulbs in the kitchen finally went out. And now that companies have discontinued making CFL bulbs, we have no fucking idea how we're going to replace them. But the part that bugs me is dad saying, "Well, we just couldn't get LED back then. It wasn't around." No! It totally fucking was! You just didn't listen to me!
