HAHAHAHAHA! My mom did this to me once, except she was overly tired because I woke her up at 2AM. I saw The Ring that night and I was like 13 and woke up in the middle of the night and the power was out. Naturally, I freaked out and went and woke up my mom. She sleepily said, “Just watch some TV” and went back to sleep. Helpful..
I can successfully say I have never asked someone to turn on the lights during an outage. I’ve flipped the lightswitch during one. After my duh moment, flashlights were enabled.
I had a classmate try to use the electric pencil sharpener during an outage for a full (measured) ten minutes. To sharpen it. She plugged it in and went for another five or so before we had to take it away from her…I felt so bad.
This reminds me of a friend’s mother. She got a new vacuum cleaner and swore that the light on the front was so she could see to vacuum when the power went out. Not a clue in the world why we stared at her for a full beat before laughing hysterically.
As a Newbie, I am {always|constantly|permanently|continuously} {searching|browsing|exploring} online for articles that can {help|aid|benefit|be of assistance to} me. Thank you…
Wow! Thank you! I permanently wanted to write on my website something like that. Can I implement a part of your post to my blog?…
First!

Wow, I wonder if she was doing her make up at the time… And I wonder if she missed Jersey Shore. THE HORROR!
Oh, she didn’t miss Jersey Shore. It comes on on Thursdays.
…I mean… >.>

It’s been awihle!
I’ve done this. My grandma tried to turn the lights on.
If that’s in all caps and you can hear them fine otherwise, how loud were they yelling?

You should totally make creepy ghost noises, Charlie. :D
I second that notion!
YES. DO IT. DO IT NOW!
please :)
I would take their advice. Make creepy ghost noises.
Do they even know how to switch on/off the lights? Or are they afraid of the bogey man under their beds?
I bet they’re scarred for life.
I have actually blinked once late at night and thought the power flickered….these girls make me feel dumb
