Okay this isn't really a question for help per se, I just wanna share a weird computer ghost story. Last year I replaced my monitor because it would randomly go dark, and eventually not turn back on. While researching I found out that it was probably suffering from a common problem that could be fixed with some spare parts and a soldering iron. I didn't have the patience to do that for an old monitor so I got a new one. The thing is, this one is turning off, too, but in an exceptionally weird way. What's so weird about it? Well, it happens only during very specific moments: when I take off my bath robe. You see, when I am relaxing with a game, I am often wearing my bath robe over my PJs. When I get up, I leave that robe behind on my chair. That causes a crackle of static electricity. And when I hear that crackle of static electricity, there's a chance that my monitor turns dark for a brief moment. I feel that shouldn't be possible to happen, given that I'm a meter away from anything computer-related at the time, and both the screen and the cables are properly isolated and correctly plugged in. I believe I can also rule out a defective cable or bad connection - I'm not touching or shaking anything on the desk when I get up, and when I intentionally the desk, monitor, and cables, nothing happens. The cable is also a new one. What's going on here? Am I taking crazy pills? Can static electricity jump a meter across the room and cause interference? Is my bath robe actually a Sith robe that projects the Force when taken off?
