I think I’m going nuts. When I was a teenager I used to impress my friends with this gag. I’d hang a piece of dry toilet paper on a string, point my finger at it from about 3cm away and watch the paper gravitate slightly towards me.
No the paper’s not posessed. Its called static electricity. Its common in dry weather and there’s lots of it where I lived in the US.
Under normal circumstances I wouldn’t have given it a second thought but I think that’s starting to change. Its not the static but the AMOUNT of it that’s been coming out of my body. I zapped two friends today by accident, just as we were walking in the mall. There was brief contact and they recoiled like they’re bitten by snakes. It felt like pin pricks they said.
I hate it when that happens. So anyway just now, just to show my two friends the freakazoid that I am, I pointed my finger close to a metal banister and out came a blue streak towards the metal surface. Its just a couple of millimeters long but its visible very very briefly. My friends freaked out. So did I.
This blue lightning thing started a couple of years ago and is getting stronger in intensity. I’ve had electrical equipment die on me. Some of my friends have wised up about walking too near me to avoid getting mini electric shocks, particularly Shirley. I just can’t control it.
Crap there goes my social life.
Shucks… I hv the same problem! Esp. in malls! Like Midvalley… but I’ve not tried the zapping trick… eek!
You could do a video on this. think about it.
Hi angel, you too huh? My friends suffered little red marks on the skin where the blue charge zapped them, that’s how bad it was.
Hi Beng2, oh no the last thing I’d want is to be on Youtube
Hi Bryan,
I find it kinda cool actually. Tried doing some scientific scanning of your body? Who knows what discoveries the scientists can make.
Hi, I had an MRI scan a few years ago but the anomaly didn’t show up. I suppose I could zap the bajeezus out of the doctor to make a point but that wouldn’t be very polite so I’ll just keep my hands to myself for now.
