Try this: Try touching your hand to a metal surface before touching anything connected to electricity.

You're electrifying: This maybe related to your electric personality, but more likely related to your shoes. You are generating a lot of static electricity which results from rubbing differing surfaces. Try wearing sneakers with rubber soles.
