usually by wearing socks while scuffing ones feet on wool carpet will accumulate static charge, this static electricity can be used to 'zap' friends and co-workers.
Alternatively, nervous system issues (particularly low acetylcholine levels, NOT recommended to be artificially altered) can allow one to accumulate a disproportionate level of charge before on discharges.
What else can I help you with?
Why removing your shoes may stop you being zapped?
Removing your shoes can help prevent static electricity buildup because shoes with rubber soles can insulate you from the ground, allowing static electricity to build up and potentially cause a zap. When you remove your shoes, you are directly grounded, reducing the likelihood of static electricity discharge.
Why does the slide or other objects zap you?
When you get a zap from a slide or other objects, it is often due to a buildup of static electricity. This can happen when surfaces rub together, causing a transfer of electrons. When you touch a metal surface or another person, the excess electrons are discharged, creating a small shock.
What is the type of electricity that electrons build up on an object?
static electricity
Does static electricity have a smell?
No, static electricity does not have a smell.
Why cant nothing be charged by static electricity?
Not sure what you are asking. You have used two fine negative words in the question, so interpretation is difficult."Why can't anything be charged by static electricity?"Static means stationary. Once the static electricity is given the chance to flow, it is dissipated. If I charge myself with static electricity by rubbing my shoes on a synthetic carpet, then I have "trapped" the electricity - it is static or still. When I touch my friend on the ear or hand, the electricity flows to her with a zap and is lost to the ground.Electricity that is generated or from a battery flows continuously in a circuit it is not dissipated.

What is static electricity lightning?
Lightning in itself IS static electricity. The only difference between lightning and the little zap you feel when you rub your feet on your carpet and touch something metal is that Lightning is MILLIONS of times more powerful.
