Someone should get fired over this.

Yeah filled out my replacement form last week. I remember smelling something burning by my computer and thought it was my monitor or something. Glad it didn't burn my place down.

Someone's gonna get burned over it.

I got my replacement last month. It looks like it has a ground fault circuit interrupter on it. (I *think* it has a test and a reset button, like GFI electrical sockets in most new bathrooms).

A hot ground fault circuit interrupter?

I dunno. I opened it, looked at it, and set it *somewhere.* The odds of it actually making it to my functioning Xbox are slim.

You want I should hunt it down and take a picture of it? Or are you not man enough to handle hot black power cord photos with totally exposed prongs?

Hunt it down and take a hot picture?

The corruption of power...

Sure it started off with playfully flashing it's red reset, and yellow test buttons.

But then it started hanging out with dirty strippers.

Next thing you know it was exposing it's prongs.

Then unprotected mountings! (Always use surge protector!)

It escalated into orgies of group plugging.

Suck that power, baby!

In its drunken stupor it couldn't decide which box to penetrate.

Then it started to have unnatural relations. Watch it penetrate the other species in the rear!

Now the Xbox gets munched. Oh my!

They paired off for some hot action that meets no manufacturers specifications!

Have they no shame!

I would have shot more but I felt filthy and was crying uncontrollably at this point. I can only imagine what happened after I left.
