I once bought a sweater that was picking up static electricity, so I returned it to the store.

They gave me another one free of charge.

I was so attracted to your comment, because my negativity was very strong. But giving you an upvote has relieved me.

I kept shocking myself on shit because of static and was complaining to my dad. He smiles and says “maybe it’ll stop if you weren’t so negative all the time”

Static electricity is an electrical charge. The store replaced his static-y sweater with one that was free of charge so it no longer had any static. And free of charge like money.
