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
Depends on the time I get it and the kind of sticker.
Is it anything remotely tech related? Goes on a laptop. Else: drawer for an undefined amount of time.
If I go out of my way to buy one, I already know where it's going.
Unless it's a sticker for a skateboard brand or punk band, in which case, straight on the nearest street sign.
All my brewey stickers from 5 years ago are still looking for a home...
I just realized I don't have tattoos for the same reason I don't stick stickers.
I have almost nothing i put stickers on, so i keep them in a drawer. When i get a new laptop or something appropriate, i pick a few out and stick them on.
My fridge is covered in pride stickers. Any time I get something that's gay or has rainbows, it immediately goes on the fridge
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.
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).
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.
Did the same thing with my PC tower. Got about half of the side covered
Just Stitch on mine. My son placed it and laughed saying, "You're about that Stitch life."
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
cover it in shit
well then the stickers won't stick...
Either a coffee mug or laptop is the answer
Won't be able to put it in the dishwasher then most likely
Idk I wash my laptop in the dishwasher all the time
A lot of travel ones aren't really intended for anything but hand washing.
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.
They're great for covering up small scratches.
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.
Meanwhile, my toddler will immediately place a sticker on literally the first thing they see. 🫠
Perhaps the real right place for the sticker was the drawer all along?
The friends we made along the way.
"wow that's a cool looking sticker. But I dont know where I would put it, guess I won't buy it"
Blasphemy
This is so relatable, I've carried my bag of stickers while moving houses three times by now.
My niece, the psychopath.
I always knew I wasn't like the others
Make your collection communal at work. It's better than a candy bowl and just as much fun.
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?
Everyone is missing the option where you put them in a box and take it around and trade them
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...
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.

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