I saw a great vanity plate today!

[It's Not Rocket Surgery!]

On my way to work this morning, I saw a vanity license plate (Ohio) that said: GRR ARGH. That's great!

For those of you that were just whooshed, here's the reference. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutant_Enemy_Productions)

[WordMan]

Too funny. I am just introducing my son to Buffy and when an episode finishes, he never wants me to skip to the next one - he wants to see the Mutant Enemy bit...

Monday, last week, on Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday holiday I saw IVADREAM.

[GrizzRich]

Years ago, in Virginia, I saw...

BAA BAA

It was on a black Jeep.

[Askance]

My favourite is a computer programmer who drives a VW beetle. The plate is FEATURE.

My favorite ever was a New Hampshire (http://www.dred.state.nh.us/divisions/forestandlands/bureaus/naturalheritage/graphics/NHMooseTHANKS.jpg) plate:
& SQURRL

It made one person smile on a dark and stormy morning on Rte. 3.



Runner up is "PMGRL" on a cute little Mercedes convertible. Mom and I just looked at each other and I sighed, "I wonder how she makes her living".


[I love the VW one.]

[Scarlett67]

I saw my favorite on a beat-up Delorean (a find in and of itself!): FLUXING. I've got a picture of it somewhere.

I'd love to see the pic! I've always dreamed of having one. When I was a teenager, my brother and I decided that mine would have a license plate that says "ERTHANGL." His DeLorean would have a plate the read "SLACKER." Our favorite movie of all time--the one thing my little brother and I could agree on.

[lissener]

I saw one once that said:

GOZ 211

I love it, but can you really get "&" on a NH plate? Here in WI we can have only alphanumerics. (Was it pasted on or something?)

ETA: Apparently you can, according to the NH DMV. D'oh!

[kaylasdad99]

Back in 1991, I was driving behind one that read PANDNH4.

:)

[racer72]

A friend of mine has a Jaguar convertible. The plate on it is GRRRR.

[sturmhauke]

DEBUG would've been funnier.Eh, I dunno. I like the implied, "it's not a bug, it's a feature".

[Annie-Xmas]

Someone in my neighborhood has "BELZBUB." I wonder who they know to get that one through.

[RealityChuck]

My favorite was still YOURN.

The owner was a urologist.

[Quartz]

Someone round here used L1NUX.

[irishgirl]

Some of these I don't get.

I saw a BMW with "NI KAP" in a hospital car park last year. This being Northern Ireland, I'm not 100% sure whether it belongs to an orthopaedic surgeon or a paramilitary boss.

[Phlosphr]

The reason behind my username on the boards was a license plate made for me that said Phlsphr :)

[Sitnam]

I saw 'RANDMA', and I didn't get it until I saw that it was a Green Bay Packer plate with the logo on the far left.

I read about a white Rabbit with the plates 'ML8 ML8'

[Flutterby]

Years ago, in Virginia, I saw...

BAA BAA

It was on a black Jeep.

*groans*

Okay, it's cute.. but still. ;)

[HillKat]

I think my all time favorite (on a VERY nice Corvette, if memory serves) is:
WHY I WK

[AskNott]

In Indiana, you can get a plate that says "In God We Trust" on the left side. I saw one with a big chrome border that looked like bones. The bones blocked out part of it, so it said "In od we rust."

[appleciders]

I remember a black VW Rabbit with the license plate INLE. Loved that one.

And another one took my mother and I a year to figure out, since we saw it almost every day picking me up from school. It read AUILOX. The woman driving was blond. So confusing!

Au is gold. She's blond. Goldilocks. Yeah, we groaned too.

[silenus]

For the longest time the security people at my school wondered what my fascination with "foreign sex" was, and how I got away with splashing it across my license plate:

XXX 4N6


None of them had ever heard of the proper definition of the word:

American Heritage Dictionary
fo·ren·sics (fə-rěn'sĭks, -zĭks)
n. (used with a sing. verb)

The art or study of formal debate; argumentation.


:D

[BetsQ]

I saw one recently that said PLANAHE. That was good for a chuckle while creeping around the beltway.

[Necros]

This morning, in front of me, was a minivan full of kids with the plate:
PB4WEGO
:)

[Johnny L.A.]

Back in the '80s I worked for a guy who liked Popeye. He had a VW Bug with the plate AGAGAGA.

[Scarlett67]

I remember a black VW Rabbit with the license plate INLE. Loved that one.
Little help, please?

(I got AUILOX right away. Ha!)

[Johnny L.A.]

(I got AUILOX right away. Ha!)
Down in Orange County I used to see a car whose plate said AUGHOTI.

[elucidator]

Little help, please?

(I got AUILOX right away. Ha!)
The driver is an effeminate man, a "nelly".

[emmaliminal]

The driver is an effeminate man, a "nelly".No no no! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Rabbit_of_Inl%C3%A9)

[Annie-Xmas]

The best non-vanity (http://www.snopes.com/photos/risque/license.asp) license plate.

[Least Original User Name Ever]

I just saw a car drive past me on I94 today. A red Monte Carlo with the license plate "LOLITA".

I don't use emoticons, but I was making this face: :dubious:

It's from the novel Watership Down. The Rabbit of Death, in the mythology of Rabbits, is "The Black Rabbit of Inle"

I had a friend who swore she saw that one, too.


The one I love was one I saw at a traffic light,. It took me a minute to figure it out:


ML8 ML8



What made it perfect was that it was on a White Rabbit.




The one I saw was a New Hampshire Plate, but there must be more than one of these, because someone on this Board reported another case from down South.

Too sweet!

One of the English department faculty at my college had GHOTI. Wonder if he still does. Maybe he's dead by now and I could get it!!

[Ignatz]

My favorite was still YOURN.

The owner was a urologist.

Reminds me of one seen about 20 years ago on an OB-GYN's old VW Beetle:
STILDNCN

And longer ago than that, in a similar vein, MUFFDIVR

[Ignatz]

Years ago, in Virginia, I saw...

BAA BAA

It was on a black Jeep.

Reminds me of one seen long ago on the Richmond Turnpike on a car of the same color and name as BLACURA, driven by a gentleman of color.

[Colophon]

DEBUG would've been funnier.
No it wouldn't. ;)

[Troy McClure SF]

I spotted a South Park fan (http://www.flickr.com/photos/troymccluresf/2099494513/) in Seattle.

[ShermanAter]

At least 20 years ago there was a mustang near my brothers house with the plate
FAA Q If I didn't see it with my own eyes I'd have never believed it.

[Joey P]

My favourite is a computer programmer who drives a VW beetle. The plate is FEATURE.
One of my neighbors has ICODE4U

[Fionn]

I saw a white sedan on the road last week with "yourmom" on the license plate.

:)

Still not getting this one.

[Johnny L.A.]

Pee and ammonium?

[Crescend]

There's a sinister-looking black Audi with a license plate that says ENTROPY around here. Well, that's one car I won't be cutting off anytime soon.

I don't get it.

Ah. Well, faa kmee, there it is! I am sofa king we Todd did.

Thanks! I still think I should get one someday. Maybe a cheap, beat-up one.
