@Pat And those plants whose seeds are sneakily clingy to fur, and you only start to notice it when petting them...
@Pat (Although that's got nothing to do with charges)
@Pat I went off the line of stuff clinging to a cat's fur that is hard to remove, and deviated from the original post about clinging via static charges.
Actually, the polystyrene peanuts and glitter carry a negative charge, so their molecules are anionic.
@Pat You can see it in the eyes: "I hate you, and I will barf in your slippers tonight."
I don't use ions in my professional life, but that would be a fantastic way to remember it!
@Pat At least those are fairly large peanuts...
Now it's annoying when the stuff are smaller pellets and you always miss a few!
