What car stickers say about you

Doesn't really work though.

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

Damn. If only there was a way that cars could pass each other.

Favorite movie I've never seen

The single non-passing lane is implied

I dunno, I like going slow- that is to say near the limit- and will have people ride me the entire time in a passing zone or blaze past me in a double yellow.

This is why I have no bumper stickers on my car at all. I’m tempted to get rid of my veteran license plate, but the normal one costs quite a bit more and says “in god we trust”.

Only bumper sticker I have says "shoot your local predator" with a camera (thanks anxiety war!) What does that say about me?

I go "Gray Man Theory" with my car and try to blend in as much as absolutely possible. I drive a popular reliable car in a popular color with a standard license plate and no stickers. I figure there is no reason to stand out and cars are some of the easiest ways to waste a ton of money.
I've genuinely considered putting a 'Thin Blue Line' flag or MAGA sticker just because it'd make cops in the area think of me as a friendly but I don't think I could live with myself.

I think many people underestimate the level of impulsivity associated with crime.
The average criminal who breaks and enters is not doing research based off your bumper stickers to determine your weekend routine so the house is empty.
They usually are just walking down the neighbourhood and spot an open door, run in and grab valuables then leave.

Same thing could work with a support the police sticker.
But then you might get keyed

I've got a pirate flag that says "I'd rather be drinking rum". I never drink and drive, but I like reminding everyone to pirate things.

I remember for a while back in the late 90's maybe, a lot of kids would have one of those custom airbrushed shirts youd get at a flea market or county fair with their name in BIG BOLD and colorful lettering all the way across the front.
Little kids playing at their local park could easily be approached by a stranger saying, "hey joey! Your mom told be to pick you up. She's in the hospital and we have to leave right now!" The panicked child follows the man who is seemingly confirmed sent by his mom because he knows his first name, forgetting anyone who's not legally blind within a block of him also knows his name.
Luckily we don't see much of that these days. Creeps are now limited to accessing merely every single detail of a child's life because mom runs a Facebook or Instagram for their child.

I had briefly considered putting a Luigi bumper sticker, but then promptly decided against it.

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, 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 potential less fortunate people target your place as a potential place to rob.
Again, don't trust anyone! Not your neighbours, not the people in your neighbourhood. Everyone is out to get you! If you do, it's gonna be your fault and the police will let you know you were stupid for trusting people.
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? 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!
Yeah; as a black person, the whole thing was just so obviously in the vein of White Flight rhetoric, etc.

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.

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.
It kind of vibes more with the MAGAsphere's whole the world is full of scary criminals and terrorists around every corner ready to hurt you mindset, so you'd better gun up, stay tuned into Newsmax, and not leave your house. When I think of privacy, I'm thinking of things at a societal level, corporations, governments, etc. Not oh god the guy down the street is out to get me.

Especially among 4 year old girls, but the kitty merch is a different story.
