I don't know why people are saying things like "wear goggles". If
the WD40 idea doesn't work, just put a sock or something over the
bulb, break it, then force the remaining base to unscrew with
pliers, or 2 pairs of pliers (one on each side of the metal base).

Because wearing safety glasses is easy to advise and won't do any
harm?

I've had some success gently working stubborn bulbs both ways,
gradually unscrewing them. If the bulb breaks, needle-nose pliers
have been a simple fix. I've always managed to use pliers without
damaging the socket, so I've never felt the need to try produce.

If the power is still on, you can cook your potatoes and carrots and
have a real nice dinner.



lol. Good one.
