Let's have another good week everyone 
intrusive thought
as a kid in primary school, we watched this PSA thing about electricity and the dangers of it. and this kid uses a knife to unjam the bread from the toaster and gets electrocuted. literally for like the past 15 years I cannot make toast without the intrusive thought of 'what if I just jammed this knife in the toaster tho?'. like, I'm not gonna do it, I don't want to get electrocuted that shit sucks. but that PSA really embeded the 'DO NOT DO THIS THING' into my head as a fucking cognito hazard
this will make your intrusive thoughts worse

why are you continuing to click
I got zapped once, briefly (not by a toaster though). Looking back, honestly a cool experience. Probably dangerous though.
oh I have been electrocuted before, minorly. it does in fact suck. I felt dizzy for like a day afterwards
Mine must have been quicker, I definitely don't remember feeling weird after a couple minutes.
I used to work I construction, drywall, house painting that kind of thing. I've been zapped plenty by house electricity (moving the outlets), it hurts but it's not really something to be scared of necessarily. It's AC so you can let go. Anyway, it's deeply unpleasant, I wouldn't suggest it lol
The time I got zapped, it was because my finger was between the prongs and I accidentally pushed it all the way in and had to unplug it with my other hand to free my finger. Wouldn't do again, but there's far far worse things. Like public speaking.
One hand zap, not terrible, fairly survivable. Trouble is two hands, when whatever electricity decides to use your heart as a circuit.
also how the fuck in like 200 years of electricity have we not invented a better method for toasting bread then passing a bunch of current down an exposed thin wire that gets hot with resistance
Wait til you find out how nuclear power is converted to electricity lol
spicy rocks make water hot make turbine go spin
It's all steam turbines, we never left the industrial evolution
we need to invent a new type of giant kettle power generator. solar, wind, and hydro not being just another giant kettle upsets me
You could probably invent a giant trough or dome that converts sun into heat for water, I know there were plans for that in the 70s space race (it looked pretty goofy)

One of the outlet covers in my house fell off when I was a kid, and I remember touching the wiring inside the walls and then getting getting my whole body electrocuted for several seconds before I pulled my hand out. It didn't hurt though, so I just left to go tell my dad. He told me not to touch it and I told him that I did. I think he was pretty concerned for a minute but I don't really remember.
Idk much about electricity but when I thought about it again like 10 years later I got the feeling I could've died that day. I don't know what would have happened if I touched it differently and couldn't pull my hand back.
When I was a baby, I was a keys and forks in outlet style baby. And I didn't stop the first time - from what I've been told. I don't remember the details on account of being a baby, or perhaps the electricity wiped my mind
that could have gone very differently for sure. I've had times like that where a thing has hit me like a decade later that I could have died there, such a weird feeling not evn like an anxiety but like a 'huh... that was a thing'
Do it, but with the toaster unplugged
