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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago

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.

Who the fuck buys a single sticker?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 46 minutes ago (1 children)

Depends on the type of sticker. They sell big stickers individually in a lot of places and some places have custom-made specialized stickers which they will sell individually.

When I was a kid, there was a kiosk in the mall that had dozens of sticker rolls and you could pull off as many as you liked from any roll you wanted and buy them. That was awesome.

Upload that motive to an online copyshop and oder in bulk.

I'm guessing that's exactly how they do it. But they still sell them individually to their customers. The customers seem willing to pay or they wouldn't keep selling them.

You also have situations like a band selling a sticker. They're not going to sell you a roll of stickers.

Scan that sticker, upload the scan, order it in bulk. Anxiety gone.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 minutes ago

I still don't think you're getting this. The band buys in bulk. The fan buys the single sticker.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

See I’d argue if I buy a single sticker it was with purpose and I know exactly where I am going to put it (car, laptop, mug, whatever…). But if it’s a random sticker given to me I’d agree with OP.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

Just buy a pack. They're stickers. They cost nearly nothing to manufacture. Me and my friends upload sticker motives to Eastern European online copyshops all the time and order 100 at a time, then split the bill. It's dirt cheap.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 7 hours ago

I just realized I don't have tattoos for the same reason I don't stick stickers.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

Either a coffee mug or laptop is the answer

[–] [email protected] 1 points 47 minutes ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Won't be able to put it in the dishwasher then most likely

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago

Idk I wash my laptop in the dishwasher all the time

Everyone is missing the option where you put them in a box and take it around and trade them

[–] [email protected] 40 points 16 hours ago (3 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 22 points 16 hours ago

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).

[–] [email protected] 8 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Did the same thing with my PC tower. Got about half of the side covered

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 hours ago

Just Stitch on mine. My son placed it and laughed saying, "You're about that Stitch life."

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

I have a sticker I want to make into a Christmas ornament. It's an image of santa on the toilet. It's been in the drawer for, uh, how long have I been married? A while.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 17 hours ago

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

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago

cover it in shit

well then the stickers won't stick...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 13 hours ago

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

[–] [email protected] 12 points 15 hours ago

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 13 hours ago

Make your collection communal at work. It's better than a candy bowl and just as much fun.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Perhaps the real right place for the sticker was the drawer all along?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 15 hours ago

The friends we made along the way.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Put them in that guy’s junk drawer from the post the other day

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

I have a junk drawer for all the internet's stickers. Send them to me.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

"wow that's a cool looking sticker. But I dont know where I would put it, guess I won't buy it"

I love that my kids actually do not do that and stick stuff anywhere they can. With age they understand some surfaces are off limits so as to not damage them, but my windows and light switches never stood a chance...

[–] [email protected] 10 points 17 hours ago

I always knew I wasn't like the others

[–] [email protected] 8 points 17 hours ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

One of my go to pieces of life advice for people is to just put stickers on things

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

Yep, and similarly, just write/draw/whatever in your cool notebooks. Using them regularly over time is the thing that makes them special. Not some grand effort at perfection.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

All well and good as long as it's something they own themselves. I've rather grown to hate all the public anti-vax, racist and far right stickers the idiots share on Telegram and plaster all over public property. Even in the nature reserve I like to walk to relax some dick has put Nazi stickers on every post in sight as well as all over informational signs telling people about the unique wildlife. It makes my blood boil, which is the opposite of relaxing in the forest.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

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?

I have several dozen stickers in my drawer now. I used to put them on the back of my TV and then my TV died.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

I guess, I'm not a psychopath.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 15 hours ago

I just skip the first and last step and am continuously overwhelmed
