Why is an electric cord with two plug end (and no ‘outlet’ end) so cursed and could it have a use even if it’s kind of pointless?

Answer 1

It’s used when someone hangs up christmas lights and strings one of them the wrong way. Instead of taking it down and flipping the string, you plug in this death trap to power the lights. The problem is you’ve got the other end with 2 live prongs sticking out flapping in the wind.
