Apparently, I'm a static electricity generator

Since then I found out I need to remove my headphones ( especially planars! ) and I need to put my hands on my AVR (metal frame) when I stand up, so it slowly dissipates the static electricity. Otherwise, there’s possibly a ton of static electricity in me, my T50RPs absorb it all like a damn vacuum ( loud crackling sounds – it’s raining static in there), and if I touch the amp “because I’m scared of breaking the amp or the headphones”… well, that’s how I broke my JDS Atom. (…)

And even if I have non-planar headphones (or no headphones) on my ears and stand up, I can, most of the time, turn off my monitor at will just by touching anything in front of me: AVR, DAC, Amp, or my monitors plastic bezels.

So, yeah. You might be a small static electricity generator too. As a precaution, “ground” yourself when you stand up.
