It's a bird or is it a 'plane?

I think my long hoped for superpowers are finally developing.

The past few days I have been getting static shocks off just about anything I touch in the office. It can only be a matter of time before an entire energy shield manifests. Maybe I shall be able to hurl power bolts at will...

On the downside, I don't do spandex...

Being a bit dim- what is Spandex? Sure it is the sort of thing one ought to know.

OMG! I never realised that shooting people with static could be super powers revealing themselves! I Must tell Mr M immediately. This winter has been extra crackly so far. Mr M won't kiss me until I have earthed myself on the radiator first and the other day I handed a book to my DD and there was a loud crack and she had a black dot on the end of a VERY painful finger.
I was blaming my fleece jacket as that is totally synthetic but I caused lightning in the bedroom one night when taking off a 100% wool jumper
Super powers eh?

I have a pair of boots which I love very much but every time I wear them around a shopping centre or somesuch I get really bad electric shocks of everything. I have spent a whole day earthing the entirety of Peterborough town centre. I once had to get a shop assistant in boots to work the self-service screen for me because I couldn't touch it without getting shocked. I now reflexively cover my hand up when touching the lift buttons in Peterborough John Lewis, which probably makes me look like a have OCD and am about the scour my child with anti-bac.

Have you acquired a new item of clothing that could be creating this exciting effect? Did your auntie knit your Christmas jumper out of acrylic? ;)
