[challenge entry] Indeed!
I just made this and it's not funny so I'll stick it here:

I think I'm just venting as to how effing useless most of these things are if you don't have VERY small things to plug into them...

# I couldn't agree more
I have one for my computer but because the plugs on my peripherals are either transformer block type or standard plugs then it's very difficult to fit them all on - especially as the tranformer block sometimes have the pins on the bottom part so the transformer is protruding above the socket and takes up the space for another plug. If you can understand what I'm saying.

# Yup!
One transformer block or an unusual plug, like them ones with little 'ears' on the base, and you're fucked.

I did manage to find an effing great variety that has swivelable sockets tho, got two, they're great!

# European ones are even worse
They're all at a 45 degree angle, half the time you can't fit anything in half of the sockets :/
