"Static electricity" is more accurately called "static charge" and refers to a body having a surplus of free electrons (negative) or a shortage of free electrons (positive).
Friction between the two objects strips electrons from one object to the other.
this is because when two objects rub electrons are being passed on to the other object making it cause a temperary side affect.
there are three ways of doing this...
Friction---- Rubbing together
Contact---- Touching together
and induction-----not touching object etc
