Did anyone else have a nylon themed childhood?

Nylon sheets, nylon pillows, nylon sleep ware, you were too scared to go to bed because of the massive static shock you would get

remember those cheap plastic chairs comprised of flexible nylon fibers so the chair has a longer life and bends to your weight. had those in grade school.. every single time i got up or sat down on those things.. POW!

yeh, static fanatic!

i hated that JUNK.. then those carpets with nylon blend fibers.. POW when you walk across and touch the door knobs.... table ends, anything with metal actually.

i lost some computer components because of that crap. eh... walk across the room touch the keyboard POW, what's that horrible salted cracker smell? oh no it's my PC board!

lol.... I am so full of static electricity because it is so dry in my home due to the wood heat. I get shocked everyday in everyway. My cat dislikes me right now too. lol...

There was a store called "Brentford Nylons", that sold nothing but nylon fabrics. Fortunately they went bust but all that static would come in handy today as a renewable energy source ⚡🙂
Yes, along with kerosene lamps, spontaneous combustion was just a rub away..
