Can the power lines also record my conversations as audio files? Or does there have to be an intermediary device first?
You all realize that most bottled electricity comes from a municipal electricity source, right?
Yes, but it’s filtered! Five times!
Thay’ve started flavouring it too.
Oh, so that’s why my outlets smell like strawberries now.
More than I needed to know.
The power lines merely transmit data. A capturing device, which is connected to the wall outlet, would be required. You think CFLs are soon to be required in every home because they’re “more efficient”? Hah!
CFLs are just a ruse. The real capturing device is the filter. They’re adjustable. See above.
I just apply a few positrons. Works like a charm.
That tends to have a rather …bright… result. Don’t you have problems with colours fading and bleaching in nearby fabrics? And what about the flash-burns and the after-images in the eyes?
You should always wear sunglasses when working with positrons. Didn’t you read the warning label? Like this. 
Sheez.
I’m wondering – and perhaps I’m way off here – but can’t you just flush the whole system out with anti-electricity, thereby leaving it nice and clean for further use?
Because appliances often do not use all the electrons provided, I save the the extras and every once in a while I have enough saved to operate without plugging stuff in. It can be a nuisance to save the electrons, I admit, and they do tend to slow down a bit in the jar, but the difference in my hydro bill is amazing. If we all practiced this kind of thrift, think how much richer we’d be and how much less waste of electrons there’d be!
Also, because our electricity is hydro generated, it tends to be a bit wet? So where the power lines come in to our house we sometimes light a little fire to dry the electricity out. We tried using an electric heater once but then we realized how silly it was to use an electric heater to dry the electricity!!! It just felt, like, weird and counterproductive.
The other thing is, when the black hole in the dryer gets too full, it starts spewing spare sox back into the laundry room. If I’m quick enough, I can harness the old hamster wheel to the stream and feed the resulting electricity back into the grid. Or, rather, I will when I can figure out why the hamsters keep burning up.
