Re: That was shocking. Literally.
I've been electrocuted before. It was really weird. I was plugging in a huge Christmas tree, and I accidentally had my finger on the metal part. When I plugged it in, I felt a huge shock, and then I felt the electricity run down my arm, then up my spine. It was really weird.

Re: That was shocking. Literally.
I put a staple in a power outlet when I was like 6. It made my hand get covered in black soot of some sort (not a burn), and tripped the circuit breaker. That was it though, I got lucky.
I have also licked 9 volts. It tastes funny. 
(I am smarter about electricity now, and plan to have a career related to it.

we didn't have power for two days
LOL
Also, I think gas ovens are better because recently the power went out but our oven was gas so I could still eat a nice hot breakfast and drink some nice tea

You guys haven't been electrocuted.
Thats the term used if you died of it. You are obviously still alive.You don't know that. I could be a ghost
Then how are you typing? I always assumed ghosts aren't solid.
Another "not quite well known" fact about ghosts is that they do not think they are dead, and they can control electronic devices. So when the key had been pressed, electromagnetic neurological waves are sent to the computer causing that letter to appear on the screen. And besides, ive been hit with electricity many times, and i am still alive, right? I can interact with other people, so im clearly not invisible, like a ghost is. Actually, i've come to enjoy that electromagnetic tingling feeling of being shocked by an electrical cord. This is an extremely long comment!

Re: That was shocking. Literally.
Once I electrocuted myself plugging in a lamp.
I was being shocked for a full minute before I felt it and realized that my finger was on the metal part.
