    Note to self: It’s 2023. Men still have a big fear of being labeled gay.

      Worse: football organisations in The Netherlands of all places are refusing to wear anything that implies sympathy to LGBTQ+ matters. Being a footballer and called gay is still a popular insult. A comedian had to start selling team captain bands, replacing the organisation’s One Love one with a new Wat Laf version (it means “How cowardly”). At least the Wat Laf is aimed at the national football organisation.

      For some reason on the other hand, the women’s football side has no problem with that, with several overt lesbians playing in the national leagues.

      My sister is a lesbian and she has a fear of being perceived as gay. She said that she’s so straight that she became a lesbian.

      Leviticus doesn’t specify a gender of the audience, so the only acceptable sex is for all straight men to become uwu lesbians.

    As long as none of them ground themselves they’re fine. Not that I think these people are smart enough to know one way or the other, but the sandals float was probably to keep it easy to plug things in

    If the pool is 98% pure water they’re probably fine unless it has piss in it

    Let’s say there is an electrical shock . would it hit one of them or all of them ?

    Eh so long as they don’t ground out then they’re fine, even if they make a ground connection then the breaker will trip long before enough juice hits that pool to seriously hurt them

        Where in the hell are you at that 200 amperage wall outlets are the norm?? In 99% of US homes outlets are 110v 15a which is enough to put you on your ass but certainly won’t kill you without prolong exposure or preexisting health factors

        A human body wouldn’t conduct that much current with mains voltage. It’s just too high resistance.

        Also pretty sure they mean breakers with GFCI as is required in some countries. If they just mean regular circuit breakers then yeah they are fucked.

        Although tbf since it has both neutral and live in the strip it would probably short and not even reach the people. As in almost no current would go through them because ground is right next to it. This would in turn cause the breaker to trip without even a GFCI getting involved potentially.

          Lmao it will definitely conduct enough to stop your heart if you’re well grounded. In this case these morons are likely ok because they’re in an aboveground rubber pool. If they were in an in ground pool with a nice metal drain or copper pipes for the water supply, they would be conducting just dandy if they stood in the wrong place.

            Yeah you were talking about 100s of Amps. A human body won’t conduct that without a lot of voltage/potential difference. You don’t even need 1 amp to kill you though.

            Yeah if there is exposed and grounded pipe work present that changes things somewhat. The lowest resistance path is probably still back through the same power strip the electric came from through, as water isn’t the best conductor out there.

      Only if they’re using a gfci breaker. Standard breakers trip at 7A+ which is plenty enough to kill you. In the US, this breaker is on the wall outlet, in the EU, this breaker is on the central panel.

        Bare in mind the nearest ground is also in the power strip. It probably wouldn’t go anywhere near the people. Since you also now have a short circuit it would probably trip the breaker depending on the conductivity of the water.
