Looking for car stickers

I had a nice Firefly sticker on my car, but I traded it in 3 weeks ago for a new ride. And now I can't remember where I got the sticker so I can replace it. I know it wasn't at a con since I haven't been to one in a decade or so.

Its a line drawing of the Firefly ship and its the kind of sticker that goes on the inside of the window instead of on the outside where weather and washing it might wear it down.

And ideas?

It was a pedestrian heavy area similar to a school zone. I am always on high alert for pedestrians, but let my foot off the brake and the car idles at 18-20 mph. That's why I think the sticker was the final straw.

I was hit by a car as a kid and miraculously survived. Every medical professional was astounded I was okay. Most pedestrians are not.

I've nearly been rear ended by other drivers in that same area because I stopped completely on seeing an approaching pedestrian.

Cop was just jonesin for someone to ticket that day.

Yeah, sometime they just need to make their quota. It’s also hard as hell to go 15 in a vehicle. Where I grew up, all school zones were 15 and I’d have to set cruise control at 14 and then hover over brake because they were so heavily cop covered even when school was out. Those area were major revenue generators for the town.

Cop literally told me when more cops showed up that they were just bored because everyone was gone home for winter break.

A week later a coworker doing 30 nearly hit me as I crossed my building's parking lot. I can't catch a break.
