I thought that was when you were making popcorn.

You're unplugging an electrical cord, when suddenly one of the prongs
breaks off inside the outlet. What would you do?

I don't have a funny answer, but I would:

1. Turn off the power

17. Replace the entire outlet

Even if I could get the broken prong out of the outlet without causing more
damage, I wouldn't know for sure the outlet wasn't faulty. Basic outlets
cost less than a dollar and I usually always have spares on hand. Safer and
easier just to replace the outlet.

3. Turn power back on.

4. Replace the electrical cord, or install a new plug on the end of the
cord.

That is CLEARLY not the way to go about it. You
are obviously an argumentative troll, and should
immediately stop contradicting people. You are
very wrong if you think we like contradictory
people on this list. We most certainly do not.

I don't have a funny answer, but I would:

1. Turn off the power

17. Replace the entire outlet

Even if I could get the broken prong out of the outlet without causing more
damage, I wouldn't know for sure the outlet wasn't faulty. Basic outlets
cost less than a dollar and I usually always have spares on hand. Safer and
easier just to replace the outlet.

3. Turn power back on.

4. Replace the electrical cord, or install a new plug on the end of the
cord.

Finally, someone with a correct answer!

I have had this happen a few times. Mostly because I tripped on the
cord. In that case, I just shut the power off, test to make sure it's
off, then remove the prong with a plyers.

If however, the plug overheated and broke off, I would replace the
outlet. I actually had a prong weld itself in an outlet once.

I didn't call the FBI

How could a broken outlet possibly eat a prong?

Why did the prong get stuck in the outlet in the first place? Are the
terminals inside the outlet bent or something?

Even if the outlet is in perfect condition, how am I going to get the prong
out. If it's really stuck inside the outlet, I would need to resort to
needle nose pliers, and/or poke something in to wedge it out. Depending on
how stuck it is, I would probably cause more damage to the outlet.

Seriously, it's safer and easier to just replace the outlet.

Of it's REALLY stuck, replace the outlet. But if it just broke because
you or someone/something else, tripped on the cord, you can usually just
remove that prong. Just make sure the power is OFF when you do.

I cant think of this ever happening to me inside the house, but it's
happened several times outdoors. I could have an extension cord for my
power tools in an outlet, and some lumber falls down, ripping that cord
out of the outlet. Hence, a prong is broke off. If I have to do a repair
around livestock, they are prone to knocking stuff down and yanking out
cords. Sure, I try to keep them out of my work area, there are times
when that is not always 100% possible.
