What am I doing wrong, /g/uys?

I bought this 32 Watt T8 Electronic Ballast Shop light (uses 4' 32 Watt T8 Tube Bulbs). I also buy the T8 LED replacement bulbs that are LITERALLY right next to that lamp on the shelf at Walmart.

I take it home and plug the GE T8 LED bulbs into the lamp.

Immediatelly I notice a burning plastic smell.

I try to turn the bulb in tighter, but it still smokes. Wtf guys? It says the bulbs are compatible with electronic ballasts for T8 lamps. That's exactly what this lamp is.

Let me give you some back story, so you can understand my frustration.

Be excited about LED technology. Plan on replacing all the flourascent T12 lights in my house with LED replacements.

Buy 4' T8 LED replacement bulbs that you're supposed to be able to just plug into the lamp without even removing the ballast.

I plug it in and it doesn't even work.

I also bought a T8 electronic ballast light. Plug my T12 bulb into it. And it doesn't work. Realize then that T8 and T12 aren't compatible. But on Amazon you CAN buy universal replacements for T8 and T12.

Anyway, I did everything right with this one. The lamp is T8, the bulb is T8. They both say they're 32Watt. But BOTH LED BULBS STILL SMOKE.

WHAT IS GOING ON?

Is it just me, or were people on the internet far more cynical and aggressive in the 00's? Outside of myspace, everything that is remotely mainstream or "normie" got shat on relentlessly. Try looking up discussions about emo when emo was the hip thing. People got death threats on forums for liking emo music. It was a dick-measuring contest of who does/likes the most obscure and inaccessible stuff than others. I remember linux fanatics being far more vocal in the older internet than now for example.

Nowadays, hipsters and hip-hop-heads are the cool things, and (even with a decent amount of hate) they are far more acccepted in today's internet than hip-hoppers or emos in the 00's internet. I've noticed that "poptimism" has been gaining traction online.

"Normies taking over" doesn't sound valid enough. Everyone I knew had internet back in the 2000's.

So what happened?
