A friend advised me to put lots of Hello Kitty stickers on my bike so that nobody would want to steal it. I wonder if the same logic applies here.
“How’s Max doing?”
“Max is fine”
hangs up
“Your Foster Parents… are Dead”
Plot Twist: The Dog’s name is actually Wolfie, the car sticker is a trick to fool mass surveillance.
Take that, Skynet!
(Sorry if this is offtopic, but I had to post it)
gonna put all of those in my car to confuse people targeting me 😎
I put an NRA sticker on mine, not because I support them or own a gun, but because this helps me get rid of tailgating cars behind me
Same thing could work with a support the police sticker.
Which, I hear, is very common
Doesn’t really work though.
Source: me, tailgating the boomer in his 2004 Silverado extended cab with a gigantic bed cap because we’re going 37 in a 50 and I don’t have all day
Damn. If only there was a way that cars could pass each other.
Pretty sure that boomer doesn’t even see you though 🤣🤣🤣
Honestly, 90% of the time I go slower than the speed limit is because someone else is slow in front of me, but people still tailgate me
My NIN sticker says I still live in 1994
They forgot to add political stickers which make you a target for the extremists who don’t agree with you.
It’s not wrong. Not quite as much info as following the average person on socials, but it can be a lot of info at a glance.
Once had a cop show up one day, just asking about something going on in the area, and noticed an empty TV box by my trash can outside. Suggested I uh, don’t do that. Basically a big sign pointing to my house “brand new TV inside!”. Not done that since.
Yeah, you gotta put that stuff in the annoying neighbor’s yard

My solution for the tv box is unfolding the box inside out and tying it into a bundle if it doesn’t fit in a recycling box. Also maybe don’t put out your boxes right after Black Friday or holidays.
I cut up the cardboard and use it for various things around the house, like putting it under the car when I do an oil change, or as liners for the wire rack shelving in my cold storage.
This looks more like paranoia than tips about privacy. Everyone has a fucking giant TV inside their home. Everyone has hobbies.
Unless you are actively targeted by some psycho… or the police. This just makes everyone thinks everyone else around them is out to rob and steal from them. But being from the US and from the police, it’s not very surprising. You also need a gun to protect yourself and your family from potential home invaders, you never know because the country is full of robbers and violent people! Don’t trust anyone! Just get your kids from school in your giant bulletproof SUV and drive straight to your McMansion where you can barricade yourself with all your precious stuff. In fact you should also take care to hide your McMansion behind a fake facade of poor people’s houses to avoid having less fortunate people target it as a potential place to rob.
Every poor person is plotting to rob you! So if you show clues and get robbed, it’s gonna be your fault and the police will let you know you were stupid for putting a dirt bike sticker on your expensive SUV.
Anyway, this is all just ridiculous in the first place. If someone wants to know you’re not home and steal crap from you, stickers or not, you’re already sitting in your fucking car, while not being home. It’s already a pretty big clue. Otherwise, are home invaders that diligent in the first place? Are they going to stalk people before robbing their home? Really, the stickers on my expensive SUV parked in front of my big house and the big garage is indicating that there might be expensive crap in my house and in my garage? I’m shocked to see how revealing those stickers can be!
In fact, this being from the police just shows how much they profile and judge the shit out of people before even speaking to them.
I have a single Pikachu sticker that says “ピカチュズキ” (Pikachuzuki) on my Suzuki. It throws people off because I’m not Japanese.
i mean, here you can just type the plate number into an open government website and it shows your home address. not really seeing a lot of consequences of that.
Yeah, this is more on the ‘paranoid’ end of the spectrum without being very effective. If you’re being surveiled or targeted, there’s plenty to dig up already.
No need to shrink away from expressing yourself. and this breeds a mistrust against your neighbors or community.
Sweden?
I wonder what my classic white oval sticker that says “meh” tells people about me, being the only sticker on my car
#1 fan of the Emoji Movie
Favorite movie I’ve never seen
Baphomet pentagram is the only car decal a guy needs
I thought for a minute this was a /c/FuckCars meme. I’m disappointed.
Could always crosspost it to that comm ¯\(ツ)/¯
Meh, I don’t think that would fit the community.
Do one for bikes? Though my bike has no stickers except a couple bits of sticky reflective strips that I put on some of the bags strapped to the bike.
The baby should not be on a board—the baby should be in a seat!!!
Where’s the blue line flag
Side by side with the don’t tread on me flag
