I hosed up setting up some christmas lights on my roof and needed one of these to connect the two strings together. When I went to the hardware store and asked for one the guy at the counter looked at me like I was an idiot and told me to get the gently caress out. What gives?

There are several reasons. They all have to do with people getting electrocuted.

If two grown men can't make a pervert happy for a few minutes in order to watch a film about zombies, then maybe we should all just move to Iran!
Because it would be a shame if I got electrocuted. Not sure why they wouldn't sell them to you though, op.

You can just make one I guess. IMO if you're dumb enough to accidentally kill yourself with one of these you're probably too dumb to make one so this problem sort of naturally solves itself.

Don't forget Hitler's contributions to medicine.
If you plug both sides into the same outlet and shut off the power to your house the power just loops around your house instead of going back into the grid giving you unlimited free electricity.

Obviously the electricity cartels don't want you to know this so they just banned them.

If you plug one of these into both sockets on a wall outlet it's basically like free power.
