When did anyone use that expression? (other than when striking their fingers into a plug socket)

Only returns 169,000 results to me - and most of them seem to be song lyrics - so maybe it is a local thing.
I shall try it out on Xmas day when the rello's give me a gift
"Ohhhh - I'm electrified" I shall say.
I suspect I will spend the rest of the Xmas break trying to persuade them that I watch Graham Norton for the guests.

When did anyone use that expression? Sticking, poking, placing are all normal, even prodding would be good, but striking is just odd.
As for "electrified", it's a perfectly reasonable expression.

striking was a iPad correct-a-thon .
I've never heard anyone say they were 'electrified' - maybe its a cultural thing?

I doubt it, I'm not at all cultured!

I think its due to electricity being quite new down under

A sugstion made to me made sense, revert the gun laws back to those guns avaliable when the founding fathers wrote it,
muzzle loading black powder flintlocks may not stop the shootings but they would reduce the number of deaths, and a lot of these morons commiting the shootings would be incapable of such a complex loading process

No need to go that far - in the UK farmers are allowed (non-automatic) shotguns and often a single shot .22 rifle for vermin control

But that would require them to be able to aim.

Not as vital when using a shotgun - pointing it in the general direction is ususally good enough

That's a pellet-gun/airgun, not a firearm like a shotgun.
|
|
|
|
|
The .22?[^] Certainly a firearm, though you can also get .22 calible pellet/airguns

..is it the firearm or the airgun that's allowed in the UK?
|
|
|
|
|
Air weapons are generally legal for most people, though there are some restrictions.
Long weapons (rifles/shotguns) can be obtained by people with relevant permits, though pistols are effectively banned.
