If america didn't have the worst plugs in the world this wouldn't be a problem. You could just balance it on top like a well run country.
Unless th US also has a Delhi...
But a metro? One can dream.
Oh yeah.
She just looked white as fuck and because it's English I figured it had to be American plugs because they are the worst.
American plugs do suck.
americans thinking like everything on lemme is related to them
Mate. I know. I fucked up. That's on me.
But please don't call me an American, not even I deserve that.
Yes.
UK plug is best in the world. Has three prongs so earth is always there. Also it pushes the protectors out if the way to open up the live socket so nothing can be incorrectly put in there. It's solid and won't fall out, you could hang a child off of that. Every plug has a fuse to protects the house and helps prevent fires. Live and neutral are partially covered in plastic so nothing can touch it when it is half in and the circuit is live.
EU plug is way sturdier that the shitty American's plug. American plug looks like it is designed to fall out the EU plug stays in.
The aus plug is with weakest of the three because it is so similar to the american but at least it is tilted in a logical manner to stop a fucking plug falling out of the wall.
All three are based on a decent electrical supply so electrical items actually work
