Yep. My Dad told me to NOT fool w/the electrical outlet in the wall when I was a kid... Knowing better than my Dumbass Old Man, I kept on until it bit me good, & I ended up on the floor screaming blue bloody murder. My mother & grandmother rushed to my aid, but Daddy told 'em to leave me alone, it might teach me a lesson..I wasn't really hurt, just startled more than anything, & ol' Henry was RIGHT, I never bothered a wall socket again... Kinda started paying a bit more attention to him after that, too..
