Sure, post a video of you placing a sticker, but it’s not funny until you have a couple minutes complied of people trying to pick it up.
I pick up all kinds of things off the ground but would probably give a hard pass to a single airpod, probably scuffed and water-damaged (if my young eyes couldn’t already tell it was only a sticker).

Many members of my wife’s family were in the construction trades, and they thought it the height of comedy to float a coin into the top of a freshly poured concrete floor. Every house or garage they built would have a sparkly coin appear to be lying on the floor somewhere, causing all passersby to bend down to try to pick it up at least once.
Hilarious, right?
I was just thinking that although I wouldn’t try to pick it up, I’d probably break my ankle trying to avoid stepping on the thing once I finally noticed it at the last minute, just before my foot went down.

Wouldn’t even attempt to pick one up, though I might try to kick it out of my way. Hard wired IEMs all the way, baby!

All cleverness in the method of produced mimicry, almost zero cleverness in the choice-of-target.

Why do I have my doubts that he went back and cleaned up his mess?
