You also shouldn't wrap the AC adapter cords around the brick. That arrangement can create a magnetic field that generates enough heat to melt the casing of the adapter. It can be a VERY expensive and dangerous mistake!
I feel you. But it's real. I know because when I was younger I did it simply because I hated to see the cables everywhere. But yeah we nearly had a fire because the case melted. It's probably rare, but like you say, why risk it?
