Ask a dumb question, get a dumb answer
I'm guessing they'd still take a thousand years. If each man screws in a lightbulb and takes a thousand years to do so, and there are still the same amount of men as there are lightbulbs, I don't get how all of the sudden they can do it faster, in 100 years (unless they get better with practice, which could be the case). But this would only be possible in the distant future, where human life longetivity would theoretically reach approximately 1000 years, but even more than 1000 because first you'd have to wait for them to become men, and that time changing the bulbs wouldn't include their food and poo breaks. And even more, if the 100 men are 100 of the previous men, let's just say around 2220 years minimum: 1000 years to screw in bulbs the first time, 1000 years to screw in bulbs the second time, and around 200 years worth of food and poo breaks (this right here is just a wild guess), plus 20 because they're men, not boys. So life expectancy would have to round to about 2220 or more if they get to retire after screwing in the bulbs (after all, the poor fellas deserve it). And if we include sleep/rest time, we spend about a third of our life sleeping, so that would add about 333 years, so it would add up to 2553+ years of life expectancy.

What was I talking about again? Oh, yeah. They'd still take 1000 years to do it which, according to an online time converter, is 525,949,200 minutes.

What do you wish there was a Chip's Challenge tileset of?
