hmm uh uh...yeah its not from your monitor and the cold what it is, is a lack of humidity in the air + static causing cloths or carpeting and metal. touch a wall beore you touch metal or dont walk around in socks.

it's the lack of moisture in the air,
invest in a humidifier, room humidifiers are cheap and it'll make your house feel a lot more comfortable if you have a decent humidity rather than the 10% common to houses in winter. And it will stop the static.

Walk around with a small piece of metal in your hand, like a key, and before you touch anything, shock the person closest to you with the metal item.

I always do that at work. I touch all door knobs with my keys beforehand.
