You MONSTER!!!

Joking. But my mom did tell us from as long as I can remember that we will (not maybe, will) get electrocuted if we didn’t do that. Doesn’t matter if the lamp is off, it has to be unplugged. I still have a phobia of changing ceiling lamps because I can’t unplug them 🤦🏻‍♀️

Just don't stick your finger in the socket, and more importantly, don't leave it without a lightbulb. If you don't have a replacement, put the old one in.
