So in practical terms, you should not just use clean language from the dictionary or the thesaurus in your sticker. To make the sticker messages more social and appealing to people, try to use slang words, widely known acronyms, or even online abbreviations and expressions. More readers will respond to stickers with that kind of language, simply because it is more closer to their everyday reality.
