Is it winter where you live? (Cold weather and people have the heat on?) If so it is a build up of static electricity. People naturally conduct electricity. When the heat is on and the air is dry, the static builds up and boom, you get a shock. I used to get shocked all the time at work when I would walk across the office and into the warehouse. (We have a huge metal door there.) Now I touch the wall first then the door and I don't get shocked anymore. Not a very scientific answer, but I hope it helps.

you have emotionally charged yourself...

1 car: the battery termainals must have earthed with the car body.

2 whiteboard: the duster used to wipe off the board is a fur type material that charges the flat surface.

3 gate: well, same as 1 above

During the winter, the humidity tends to be lower especially inside where the heat is on. You're just building up a static charge. If you have a humidifier, turn it on. That will help a lot.

Oh, that means you have a high voltage energy! Actually, whenever my hands got tired and almost painful, I could even see a sort of steam going upward. Coz those things also happened to me. But then, just simply vanished everytime I press my hands on the glass table or glass door or anything that's made of glass.
So, try this. It might help you.
Have a nice day.

A static electricity charge builds up in your body and discharges when you touch another conductor. To allay annoyance, maybe discharge to another person?
