Do you just not care, writing the note any which way and sticking it on however it ends up? Or do you specifically always stick it that way?

Putting it sticky side up doesn't really let it stick to the wall...

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 26 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I think you are, like I did, interpreting "sticky side down" as meaning "sticky side against the surface to which you're attaching the note."

I don't want to speak for the OP, but I think they meant "sticky side down" as "still against the wall, but at the bottom of the note, rather than with the note hanging from the sticky side at the top."

Yeah, I considered that and decided that was no fun... :)

It's true - I am fun at parties!

You and the commenter to whom I was responding have very similar usernames.

I want to make a joke about that, but I've got nothing. I can only think of something about command line flags or something about "O" faces and I don't have any way to make either of those funny in this context.

Please ~~clap~~ laugh.

We're the same user. They're just at the end of a good night out.
