    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
    Plan for the worst, hope for the best

    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 ) 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

    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 .
