Baphomet pentagram is the only car decal a guy needs

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

I wonder what my Trogdor the Burninator sticker is secretly telling people about me.

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 wonder what my classic white oval sticker that says "meh" tells people about me, being the only sticker on my car

I’m not a millennial, but I do kinda sorta work in IT, so half guilty as charged. Back to practicing my consummate Vs now.

The amount of "OREGUNIAN" and Sig Sauer decals on people trucks, cars and the occasional Jeep Liberty in my area is tragically comical. Just drive through any neighborhood where garages aren't common and you could pick out ten houses to rob later.
You couldn't ask for a bigger target to paint on yourself.

That seems like a small price to pay to have a dark magician girl decal in people's faces in bumper to bumper traffic lol.

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.

Honestly though you got me there, I think being on Lemmy is a much stronger predictor of someone working in IT than whether or not they watched Homestar Runner, haha.
Like shot in the dark accusations of IT work here you'll hit someone 9 times out of 10.

Fair. I’ve been trying to explain Lemmy and the Fediverse to my non-tech friends and it has been…entertaining.

If they know what email and reddit it are, Lemmy should be pretty easy to understand, at least from a user-perspective. Replace reddit with Twitter/Bluesky for mastodon, Instagram for pixelfed, etc, etc. I don't think understanding how email works at a tech level is important for being able to use it. Ditto for fediverse.

I wonder what my "none of that" says.
Seriously though, I haven't messed with any stickers since the last time I had a chrome bumper (my first car). I've never (that I remember) stuck anything on the windows at all. I think stickers on paint just looks fucking stupid as shit, but nothing (besides trucks and work vans) has anything but fiberglass bumpers anymore.
I've always had decision paralysis about them ever since. I don't really wanna say "come rob me", (not that I own even 1 valuable thing worth stealing besides the car itself- and I don't even own that yet).
I live in a pretty extremely red area (blue state, but very red region), so I'm not trying to give "please hit me" to probably 70% of drivers.
I don't want the satanic stuff because I hate religious stuff in all forms, even when mocking Christianity, and I have to park in my parents' driveway sometimes and while they wouldn't do anything, I feel like it would be uncomfortable. They know I vote blue, but they still have no idea about the atheism. Yet.
I could do a band sticker I guess. Not that a big chunk of people have heard of it, so who am I metaphorically high fiving?
Right now the car is basically blank. No stickers, no bumper stickers, no decoration, and even the inside is almost completely empty. If you looked in my window you might see the cable that I use to make my android auto wireless instead of wired. But it just looks like a regular charging cord from what you can see easily.
Car is even still (relatively) new, so there isn't even a "personalized mess". It's just empty unless I've just recently left a quick grocery trip, which might see me with groceries in the interior floor instead of trunk.
Even has a standard generic state license plate that isn't customized.
The absolute most you would know about me from coming across my car in a random parking lot is just the kind of car itself being a hybrid, so you could maybe deduce that I hate the entire oil industry's entire existence.
If I lived somewhere that had a decent amount of chargers, I would have an EV (definitely not a Tesla though, and that would be another thing you would learn about me I guess). I know I could get a home charger too but that doesn't work in my current situation, so hybrid is about the best I can do for right now.
Hopefully this car lasts me until either chargers are way more common, or EVs themselves are cheaper. And since it's by far the youngest car I've ever owned, and I put a whopping 1k (yes, one k) miles on it in the almost year I've owned it, I imagine it will last that long. If the US isn't a crater before that anyway.
