Damn shocking!

[Number One]

Hey I heard somewhere the other day that apparently lots of people are reporting that they are getting shocks off the shelving at both Countdown and Woolworths stores.

I find that I get shocks off stuff all the time....drives me fricken nuts but I seemed to be getting more than my usual share the other day at Woolies and got mighty pissed off about it after the 15th shock in the space of 10 minutes!!!

SO is it just me and the story I vaguely recall is crap or has anyone else experienced this recently.

BTW - it only started happening recently...since the J'ville Woolies got a 'makeover' and the countdown store changed it's shelving.

This often happens when you wear footwear with high amounts of nylon in the sole. The charge rubs onto your shoe soles.

Get shoes with a rubber sole and it wont happen again.

Prolly static electromatrickery...I get it all the time from everything and always have. I put it down to my magnetic personality (:whistle:).

I got up off the recliner chair t'other night, went to pat the cat and zapped her with a spark...she seemed a little pissed off with me after that...

Yeah I'm aware of the nylon shoe thing and since I suffer from this so badly I am careful to wear rubber soles as much as possible.

YUP! I get this too. I zapped one of my colleagues at work the other day - she also was a little pissed off with me about it...I laughed on the inside - she can be as pissy as she likes...can't stand the bitch anyway :lol:

Utter bullshit. This only happens to Hawt, Hawt, girls no matter what they wear :yes:

I can get a static shock off almost anything. I am well known for giving static shock kisses to my nearest and dearests. It is not only synthetic surfaces rubbing together, it is also about humidity and how susceptable you are.

More later

Most likely you / them are shocking the shelves, not the other way around.

Actually at the moment he is rather enamoured with the hot pink Napisan packaging....not so tasty...

[Trudes]

For a while there I was getting shocks off the shelves at Woolworths, and the tins and trollies and the checkout chick. Pissed me off so much that I now shop online and have my groceries delivered.

Oh and BTW I love my Sketches, they are fuckin comfortable.:bleh:

Still better a strapoff than a strapon eh?

:doh: What am I saying...it's you innit.... :shutup: :lol:

Having recently tried a strap on on I would actually prefer to have a strap on on than a 'leash' attached :blip:

I should probably quite quickly point out that I don't own one nor have I tried one in that way...strap on or leash for that matter...I did slip one on at a certain dvice party that shall remain in the cone of silence...INCLUDING THE IMAGES! Don't dare be tempted bitches!

Anyway on the note of strapping on a strap on (and I find this a bit more shocking than the cheap shit attack shelves at Woolies!).....Having a wanger strapped onto yourself?!...in front of a room full of ladies you don't know?!...WHILE one woman I have never before met spanked me with a paddle?! Very strange effect but shaking it about and just having it had this weirdly satisfying buzz about it. I also tried jumping with my legs closed but alas strap ons don't produce that pain that I have heard sooo much about from various men throughout my life :lol:

Anywho - I can see why it is that you buggers might grab it and scratch it and all that other stuff we SEE You doing to it all the time! But good on yas and enjoy it ;) It's yours after all

PUSSY!

Not true.

I try to be a good girl and remember my own bags, but you know sometimes the devil in me sees me there with no bag.

Take last weekend for example. Off I go to get the bits and bobs I needed to create my usual gormet feast for the evenings supper. I also had to get my bottle of vino.

Roll up to the checkout and the lovely lady asks if I want a bag, because they now charge 10c for them. I said yes I would have "a" bag thanks. So she proceeds to pack my supplies into one bag. Comes to my wine and she grabs one of those green bags. I say, oh dont worry put it all in the same bag (thinking all the while, shit there goes another 10c). She reassures me it is ok to use a green bag, they dont actually charge for them????

EH? Well then, put all my things in the green bag :yes:

So there you have it. Pay for ordinary ones, but not for the green ones they have to enable their customers to disguise the wine buys :lol: What a crock!

[Genestho]

Either it's my magnetic personality :lol: OR my totally innapropriate shoes (platforms on the farm, heels on bushwalks, spontaneously jumping on a sidecar in my high heeled boots at the "Have a Go Day" I digress)

I'm quite constantly shocked :eek:

[Hitcher]

I understand that you can get shocks of the shelves at Repco and Supercheap Auto.

[Trudes]

I got a shock off my letter box a while back, and it's wood!
