Never leave a charger in an outlet without your phone: I’ll expose the three major reasons

Leaving chargers plugged into sockets after charging electronic devices is a habit many people have adopted without considering its potential consequences. Yet, the implications of such behavior can be significant.

What happens when chargers remain plugged in? Even when not actively charging a device, the charger continues to draw power, albeit at a minimal level. This standby power consumption may seem insignificant, but it adds up over time.

Repeatedly leaving chargers plugged in can lead to overheating, hastening the deterioration of internal components like capacitors. In the event of a voltage surge or fluctuation, an overheated charger connected to the power source risks smoking or even sparking a fire.

Moreover, ensuring home safety is crucial, especially for households with young children or pets. Chargers left plugged in with cords dangling pose a potential hazard for electric shocks, highlighting the importance of proper cord management and awareness of electrical safety practices.

When we are 20 years old, our concern revolves around the opinions of others about us.

When we reach the age of 20, our preoccupation lies in the thoughts others have about us. By the time we turn 40, we no longer concern ourselves with their opinions. And as we reach 60, we come to realize that they haven’t been contemplating us at all.

The statement about age’s significance was not originally attributed to Ann Landers.

In March, we disproved a Facebook post that falsely attributed the quote to Winston, which stated: “At 20, you’re concerned about others’ opinions; at 40, you stop caring about what others think; at 60, you realize no one ever thought about you at all.”

If we advance seven months, we encounter an almost identical post, except this time the statement is credited to the deceased advice columnist Ann Landers.

The post titled “Aging Gracefully” starts with the statement, “In our twenties, we are concerned about the opinions of others. By the time we reach our forties, we no longer bother about what they think. And when we turn sixty, we realize that they haven’t been giving us any thought at all.”
