I’d rather risk the shock..
Way to lazy to pull out a device like that and hold it to my doorknob..
The sticker isn’t as bad, just doesn’t look nice when it’s stuck on your door.

Painful? Come on, don’t be such a wimp! It’s like putting on gloves to take something out of the fridge.

After watching this commercial I have this urge to do the exact opposite. Seriously, where can I find technology that would allow me to add static charges to things. In other words where can I find a long wool carpet in Japan.

Maybe I can single-handedly create a market for these things.

You can touch door with elbow or palm. There nerves are located deeper in the skin, so you feel nothing. Also avoid wearing clothes made of plastic, which are very popular in Japan. Cotton clothes did not accumulate statistical electricity.

Nutrient jelly in a pouch!
I would consider that as pre-chewed food.

Static electricity is probably near the bottom of the “Life’s Problems” list.
Right next to velcro being loud, and ice clumping together at the bottom of the glass.

She sure loves protection…

Well, my PC chair was charging me up whenever I sat on it for more than a few minutes which is pretty fucking annoying.
I would have bought some discharging shoes if they were cheap and I’d knew where you can by them in my area, but now I just put a blanket over it and it’s working by holding off the static energy.
