Seriously my house has 60 outlets and switches like that and they are all being replaced.
This person must raise electric eels.
Is this AI or slumlord?
The sims
Plz tell me this is just AI slop and someone in this world didn't actually make a suicide sink
Funny story, my friend's mounted microwave fell out of it's spot above the stovetop and asked me to come check it out. The outlet for it was inside the wall, just metal strapped to the gas line. He no longer lives in that condo.
This predates Ai, it’s a sticker. You can buy them on Amazon.
But it casts a shadow
It's the whole outlet cover stick on?
I've seen such stickers that have the shadow printed on them.
The illusion is more easily detected IRL than with a static picture.
There appears to be a shadow on the bottom of the sink too.
My guess is that this is an actual wall plate with shaved or whatever inserts for the plugs actually glued to the sync itself for the more realistic lols
The shadows are part of the sticker. 
The other shadows are straight down, yet that one has one on the side. It’s not casting its own.
There's a shadow under the outlet too
Yes?
It's like Midjourney released and everyone immediately forgot that Photoshop exists.
My ex once lived in an apartment that had an outlet in the shower. This is plausible.
Obviously you plug a suicide cable into it to block both ends at once. Can't suicide twice, therefore they must cancel each other out, problem solved. Just gotta make sure that cord is plugged in realll tight.
I've seen enough to know that even if this picture is fake, there is a 100% chance something like it actually exists.
Cutting through that sink would be a bigger hassle than putting it in a proper location.
Hopefully it is fake.
Unfortunately, it looks pretty real. Though it also looks like they could be renovating the kitchen and just messing around in the process
It's not that hard to fake this
What blows first, the circuit breaker or the user's heart?
Turns every toothbrush into an electric toothbrush
Pshhh obviously fake. Everyone knows the interior sink mounted outlet gets a GFCI in the receptacle. Does anyone else smell toast?
All outlets “downstream” from a GFCI outlet are also fault protected, so they probably did the reasonable thing and put the GFCI in the bathtub and fed the line over to the sink. Obviously.
I was in an airport once looking for an outlet, spotted one from across the way and was quite disappointed to find out that they make stickers of outlets
I've seen a meme where someone was slapping those on a wall in public lol
Now I can easily steam clean my toaster. Finally!
This frightens me on a deep, almost primal level
For the immersion blender obviously.
