Do not shuffle your feet across the rug when the humidity is 25%, and then kiss your husband.

Oh, you were talking hypothetically? lol

lol........ It must be lower than 25%.. I think it needs to be a lot lower on synthetic or wool carpet..

When we bought our first house it was extremely cold-for us & didn't get above freezing for over a week-new carpet the kids would turn off the lights & slide-sparks coming off their feet.. I told them don't hug me, I was like a zap magnet...lol

That is what this thread is for.
I suspect it will fail miserably,but here goes!

Many things can build up a static charge. Helicopter blades tips at night light up if the conditions are right (desert is good), same for St. Elmo's Fire in airplanes. The book "Moby Dick" had a scene about St. Elmo's fire. In winter in North Texas, I'll get a shock opening the grocery store milk refrigerator wearing boots and on a linoleum floor.

Do you know this joke?

NSFW
I once asked Mason's mother, "What goes in dry, comes out wet, the longer it's in, the better it gets and when it comes out, it's limp and sags?" She said, "A teabag you nasty, nasty man!"

God, she was sooo funny! Teabagging

Yea, I get shocked in the store as well.. Static build up in the metal carts then ZAP...

Clay soil is also a result of the same forces....... I can turn a shovel upside down & the clay stick.. There is a very strong bond holding the tiny particles tightly together....

That's nice. How long are your kayaks?

ETA: I mean, you know, your boats. If that's okay to ask. lol

Both my fishing kayak and two-seat kayak are about 13 feet long, about 28 inches wide and under 60 lbs each. Each light enough to throw up on a car rack or in a pick-up truck.

Do you kayak?

Was doing 800 ml of ibuprofen x 3, cut down to 800 X 2 a day rest of week & lots of icing

That works as long as you have no ill effects with it. I'm on Naproxen 500mg X2/day every day. It helps!

Any word on when your doctor offices would open? All of ours are open in rural and suburban Texas, but they make patients wait outside until their temperature is check, a limited count of how many are inside, masks are required and all the staff are gloved/masked up.

My wife will have knee replacement surgery in a few weeks. They said she'd be given a COVID test upon entry.
