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!

Circuit breakers are your friends - if they haven't already tripped, hit them on your way out. I wouldn't go near the plug while the circuit was live.

(On the other hand I am not the best source of advice on these things. In the past, I've gone away for the weekend leaving a pan over an open flame. There was nothing near the stove to ignite, because I'm not *quite* that stupid, so it just got red-hot and stank the kitchen out. And the bottom of the pan explosively delaminated when I stuck it under the cold tap, which was kind of fun.)
