    I recently found my Radiohead Kid A stickers that have been waiting for the perfect placement since 2001.

    I used to be like this but then started pre-deciding items that would be just plastered with stickers so I can just buy whatever cool stickers I want, knowing there’s a place for them.

    My water bottle and laptop for example are now covered in stickers

      I fairly recently learned that they sell covers that go over laptops so you can move between employers and bring your sticker collection with you (and bonus, not annoy your IT department as much).

        Just Stitch on mine. My son placed it and laughed saying, “You’re about that Stitch life.”

      I bought a chunk of foam presentation board and put it in those metal snap together frames where you can buy two sides at a time for $10 so you can mix and match the lengths to get the size you need and now I have a “sticker wall” that I can take with me from apartment to apartment.

    The secret is to just have a sticker area and then cover it in shit

    That’s why the one wall in my little office nook is covered in anime characters and such

    Meanwhile, my toddler will immediately place a sticker on literally the first thing they see. 🫠

    The trick is to cut out the sticker (with the film underneath) and use paste gum to just place it where you want it. You can then remove it and stick it somewhere else whenever you want.

    When I come across a sticker I really like, like a band at a show or something, I usually buy 2 so I can stick one somewhere without much thought and put the other in a drawer for these reasons

    Unless it’s a sticker for a skateboard brand or punk band, in which case, straight on the nearest street sign.

    I had a big collection until I got a large toolbox in my garage. They’re all stuck on it now and when I get new ones they instantly go there also.

    Uh oh! I have a few hundred brewery stickers that I’ve put up. Some are even duplicates between my home glass display and my work locker.

    Am I a double psychopath?

    This is so relatable, I’ve carried my bag of stickers while moving houses three times by now.

      I have never been able to put a sticker on a laptop case. Just something about it feels wrong to me. I can’t explain it.

          I have scratches on my case. But there’s some part of me that says it has to be clean. Just the ThinkPad logo in the corner. And if that wasn’t there, even better.

          Like I said, I can’t explain it. I just want it to be as flat and plain as possible.
