Problems problems

I picked up some wireless headphones, so that I can play Guitar Hero loudly without annoying sleeping/working people.

The problem being that when I went to plug them in I discovered that already plugged into the sockets by the TV are:

TV
RAID server
Wii
XBox
DVD Player
Cable TV Box
Cable Network box
Wireless router
Amplifier
Subwoofer

and thus I am completely unable to plug anything new in without buying another power block.

Edit: Found another power block at the other end of the room - switched it over - and now have spare slots to plug things into.  Mwahahaha - the power!

Um, dude? If the idea is to use the headphones to do it quietly, then why do you need the subwoofer plugged in? Surely the ability to unplug an item isn't unknown?

Maybe you should get an electrician in to give you loads of power points - preferably about 2-3 ft from the floor so you don't need to fumble around.
Either that or stop being lazy and whiny of course :)

If you keep this up you'll need your own generator too in case of power outage.
