Today I opened my new curling iron (thanks, Mom) and was looking at the instructions. Don't ask why - I always glance through these kinds of instructions to see if there's anything useful. There never is, and these were no exception, but I came across this piece of amazing cautionary wisdom:This appliance may have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

Defeat? (Megan puts away the sword and shield she had ready to battle against said safety feature.)
Shoot.
