Sepples goes out and buys a new lamp just to get its lightbulb and replace the broken(?) one with it.

People generally do not use hammers to change light bulbs.

Should. People should not use hammers to change light bulbs, and people should not use Sepples to do anything, but unfortunately they do.

Only one will do, but in the meantime he'll break about 100 bulbs due to segmentation faults and he'll need to build his own stairs to get up there.

He'll replace it with a SepplesTM bulb, which takes a minutes to warm up, takes around 800 cm3 (making it impossible to pass under it) and burns up every few hours. Still, he'll argue that it's a better and faster bulb as he nonchalantly loads his shotgun and points it to his foot.

Trick question. A Sepples programmer won't even be aware the light bulb is broken.

They'll fix it in the next revision, probably by installing an extra, slightly different socket.

He'll try to yank in the plug a 1500mm fluorescent lamp, claiming it's a subclass of Lamp and therefore compatible in interface.

``Sage" is a Japanese word.
The plural is just ``sage". (Technically it shouldn't be capitalized either.)

Is ``sage'' even a noun? I thought it was some form of verb.

if someone is going to complain about how to romanize a word (capitalization), then they don't get to romanize it at all. transliteration is for idiots who can't learn a new writing system
