Australian plugs - Wtf

This morning I've thought of all the Aussies around here.

I'm an IT and apart from doing web maintenance and network administering, I have to attend in summer the people that come from all around the world to say their conferences.

And I had a bad time this morning, I put the portable MAC, I connect it to the network of my working place, I connect it to the sound system, and I connect it to the plug, but WTF?

the plug was like this /_ \  instead of |_| !!!! fortunately enough I found an adaptator we had somewhere in the storage room, but I just was lucky !!! Why don't you have normal straight plugs??? I really hated Australia this morning.

Well I've been lucky. Do you know why the girl called me "chief" all the time? You Aussies are strange!!!  :)

(I just wanted to protest about this for a laugh, but if I hadn't the adaptator I'd be  :veryangry right now)

calling you chief is the same as people calling you 'ace' . Its annoying but it could have been much worse.

As for Australian sockets and plugs, got to agree with you, they are a pain in the butt

All of Europe (with the exception of Britain) seems to have these plugs:

These are SHAVER plugs! They should NOT be added to TV's, DVD players, stereo's, etc!!!

Sort yourselves out, you bunch of bloody oddballs!

Real plugs look like this:

Get with the program, EU nobrots. :angry: :p
