I have seen that before- I imagion that it is not good, but it didn't burn anything up on me, so you're probably fine
What do you mmean misplaced it slightly?
Might just have been a static discharge.
does it still work?
Yes it works perfectly. Misplaced slightly:meaning i didn't plug it in straight, kind of at angle so the plug just touched the metal part of the jack, thats when i noticed a tiny spark.

lol if it breaks, then you got a problem, by misplaced slightly i thought you meant you stuck it somewhere else (maybe a girl's secret spots :lol:) i heard this stupid story about a girl in my highschool that was doing things with her vagina, and happened to stick a broom in it and then the broom broke! And she had to get like surgery. hhahah lmaos
:dabs:
well, headphones are powered by electricity.
My wife always does that with her headphone jack, that is very annoying . But seeing as I'm also guilty of putting it in the wrong hole from time to time it's a trade off . ;)

Thanks, thats what i wanted to know.Quote:
