We had a similar arrangement when I was a kid; my dad would shout "Goddammit, this electricity isn't free, turn out the lights when you leave the room!"

Then he would think he was getting over on the power company by installing 55watt bulbs instead of 60s. Despite being a very smart person, occasionally his calculations skipped a step or two.
