In the last sixty years, I've unplugged many an AC cord, but I've
yet to 'leave parts of the plug' in the outlet! I hope you mean by
'pulling it out of the wall', you aren't pulling on the AC cord itself?
Rather than grasping the plug near the outlet and gently but firmly
unplugging it?

Just wondering.

I was wondering about that also, I have never heard of anything breaking off
in the outlet!

It sure does sound like the OP is pulling the cord and not the plug.
