Trying not to screw things up worse
Some of the outlets in my house pull out from the wall when I'm unplugging something.
I haven't ever let one pull very far out; when I see it starting to happen I hold the outlet back against the wall and then after I'm unplugged the outlet stays flush against the wall like nothing was wrong.
1) Why is that happening?
2) How do I fix it?
Background info:
House was built in the 1920s but much of it has been remodeled over time, before I moved in. Half the outlets are 2-prong, half are 3-prong. The above problem happens on both types of outlets but mostly on the 2-prongs.
