    You try spending your whole life getting penetrated by various foreign objects and not feeling shame

      The penetrated usually penetrates too.

  This also makes me wonder why the xkcd one was laid out like that. Is the xkcd one better/safer, or was it done that way to look more insane.

  On yours, the Canada/US and UK layouts overlap, while in the xkcd one they’re opposite to each other.

    I think it’s because mine doesn’t have Schuko (type f) support … probably because it’s real? And maybe because his adaptation uses “Euro”/A combination, wheras mine uses vertical axes for the “euro” plug.
