I did not get close enough to **CUTE␣BOY** to confirm either of those attributes but maybe they would like to get together with **BMRBABE** (driving a BMW of course). I think I do not want to meet N8FURY after dark especially given their car was black already. I also could not confirm if **MAJ␣MINR** liked music of simply drove their kids around a lot. And I still am not sure what kind of geek **ADMGEEK** is, if it was AMD I could understand liking the processor. Maybe Admiral geek? `//i\\` ---

Yesterday I saw a typical “Soccer Mom” family van. Even had little white stick figure kids in the back window. The standard FL plate read **KIK⎵BOL**. Evidently Mom knows her role. 😉 ---

I saw a fairly new Mercedes AMG SL43 with **OP⎵HAIR**. If they’re a hairdresser, they probably charge a lot for a session. ---

I found it amusing to see one of those horseless carriages with **NAYYYY** (and yes it there was a horse enthusiast picture on the plate). It was also refreshing the honesty of **WE␣LI3** though it might make difficult for them to sell their car in the future. I am fairly certain that **I1IIIII** chose the plate to confuse the tolls since the 1 and upper case i are difficult to distinguish from a distance, I don’t know if it confuses the cameras though. `//i\\` ---

Saw a good one today. Decently fresh Tesla Model S in a rich dark gray color. The license plate frame was all sparkly rhinestones, no words. The Tesla T logo on the trunk lid was also all sparkly rhinestones. The Florida standard plate read **KENNA**. Apparently Kenna is a sparkly and stylish lady. The good part was that also on the trunk lid was a sticker. A head & upper torso shot of elon musk. Photoshopped to be wearing a white dress shirt, very hot pink tie with matching hot pink suit jacket. And a hot pink ladies’ tam o’ shanter style hat. _Tres chic_, there elmo! With this text around the picture: > Bought this before > [_chic_ picture here] > became First Lady Wicked burn, there Kenna! Well done! ---

I suspect it means “This is Harry’s TARDIS.” Or Harriet’s, or whatever H-name the owner has. ---

That _is_ a headscratcher. You may have won the thread there. 🙂 Yesterday I encountered a newish white Cadillac sedan with a standard FL plate saying **A⎵MONEY**. Woman driving was late 40s, maybe early 50s. Big hair, nice suit, full makeup job. My first guess was real estate agent, but might be a manager / executive of some sort. ---

Today found a white Tesla model 3 with a standard FL plate saying **CYA⎵GAS**. At first I was baffled. Until I recast the first part from cee-wye-ay to see-ya’. Nicely done. ---

I wonder if **W1LDM4N** driving a Mazda 3 and **FIREGRL** driving a pick up truck should get together, or if the combination would be too dangerous. `//i\\` ---

On a Mercedes: **WHITEETH**. Presumably a dentist, but not a dentist plate. I liked the overlap of the words. ---

[![](https://i.imgur.com/0CU6m67.jpeg) ](https://i.imgur.com/0CU6m67.jpeg) There’s a joke in that decal somewhere. As for the plate, the short version of Psalm 27 appears to be “The whole world is out to get me and I’m in legitimate fear for my life, but it’ll be fine because god.” ---

> [@Bullitt](#): > > **HIDOPEY** > > (another license plate that needs a space between the words) That appears to be **HT** , not **HI**. But you’re probably right it’s supposed to be read as an I, not a T. But if it _is_ meant as a T, then “Hit dopey”, “hat dopey”, “hot dopey”? Hmm. > [@Topologist](#): > > I liked the overlap of the words. Yes. Even better if this person is an orthodontist or cosmetic dentist who fixes overlaps.
