Is it really important to wear a static strap when working on a computer?
It is a very good practice to wear a properly grounded static strap when working on a PC. Static discharge can be very damaging to computer components. It's a good idea to be certain that the PC case is also grounded while working. I have worked on and built multiple computers and never worn a static strap or worked on a anti-static mat. I do prefer to touch something metal to see if it shocks me just to be safe. I have never damaged anything from this, but I do know that It can happen.
Why is a ground strap necessary safety feature when transferring fuel?

What is the purpose of wearing an antistatic wrist strap?
The human body naturally accumulates static electricity - through friction with the man-made fibres we wear. An anti-static wrist strap is connected to just the earth circuit in the household mains supply - this sends any build up of static down to earth - preventing it getting to the computer. Many computer circuits are so delicate that a tiny amount of static is enough either to wipe a computer chip - or even damage the circuitry within the chip itself !
Will putting a dragging metal strap from your car stop static shock when you exit the car?

What is a ground strap?
In a vehicle, it is the electrical strap that connects the engine to the rest of the car. The purpose is to make sure all electrical devices have a good electrical connection and to prevent static in the radio. In appliances it is a wire that connect the appliance to a permanent grounding device. The purpose is to prevent injury to the people who might touch the appliance. In a vehicle an earth ground strap is also a strap that drains static electricity off the car to the ground. They prevent painful static shocks when exiting the vehicle and eliminate electrostatic discharge ESD responsible for fire at gas stations.
