I’d guess it’s Miss’s initials.
On my morning commute…
COLAN
WONFU
U
A★SRCH
DEVIL00; in California, and maybe all states, a zero is the same as the letter Oh. So maybe this is DEVILOO?
PREECV
MHMKAY; a play on initials MHM and okay?
9X9 ★81; yes I can multiply
BALE 2
PR3SJAX
AXEL 127
G★RZA 5
GOLF H2O on a VW Golf

I took some vacation days this week so I’ve been out and about. Had a decent haul this morning.
LEMUR on the Zoo supporter specialty plate
DELISH 1 on a car I don’t remember
MOON13 on a car with a bunch of witchy looking bumper stickers
PITG 3 on a small SUV with a wrap advertising “The Preferred IT Group”
Agree initials are a possibility. But it might be “Rich Girl Princess”? “Rich Great Princess”? “Rich Gorgeous Princess”?
But my fave theory is Urban Dictionary: RGP.
Our Mercedes owner only has RGPs. And boy, is she spoiled about how she solves them. And even moreso, she’s proud of that. Sorta like Paris Hilton or a Kardashian woman is her role model.
M’kay is a common jokey spelling for Okay. Which carries a lot of different connotations depending on who’s using it: Urban Dictionary: mkay. Used more by women than men IME/IMO. So perhaps it’s MH M’kay meaning something like “My initials are MH and if you’re not OK with that, stuff it.”
Or it could just be e.g. Michael Herbert McKay or Mary Helen McKay.
I scored a couple yesterday but it was a bad day for notetaking. The only one I remember was a scruffy car festooned with anti-trump commentary whose plate was KATALST. I hope they can catalyse something to end this era of madness; we could sure use it.
Years ago, around 2012 whenI first joined here there m was a Doper here with the name umkay but she got banned for lying about herself. She posed as a quadriplegic and had a long thread, something like Ask the Quadriplegic, something like that. She really had a lot of people going, and then ‘she’ was discovered for being a complete fraud and was banned. Apparently ‘she’ was doing something similar on another board.

A brief mention about that troll, umkay
Umkay has been banned
Who was the worst troll on this site? A vote for umkay
The f#ck? I died?
The biggest whoosh on the Dope? A vote for umkay
AGAIN, DO NOT REPLY TO THIS. I DON’T WANT TO HIJACK THIS THREAD.
A quick search on umkay will reveal a lot about the troll.
From this afternoon:

**JONAT **
TWN8TRB
SUB 90 on a Chevy Suburban. It was probably a 1990.
1VIPSFO on a limited-looking black new shiny Chevy Suburban
Two final ones for today:
YUSIF another name
CYBR PWR
Scored a couple late yesterday:
-
IGORS on a FL 5-character surfing booster plate on a pickup. LtCol Kilgore famously said “Charlie don’t surf”. But evidently Igor does.
-
I⎵AM⎵GAY on a FL standard plate on a sorta ragged Toyota. At a glance, the young driver was indeed gay. Out and proud my man!
Out and proud!!
So far this morning,
CODE JS
PANDA LT on a black tesla. No white on it. Maybe an old SF Giants fan of Pablo Sandoval, the Panda?
1CYRMO no idea what that is
XBILLOX hugs and kisses for Bill?
LADY YD
4 BABLUV this brings the great song, Baby Love by The Supremes to my ear. Now I’ve got that ear worm.
JIM TESS presumably a happy couple
DIAMNTE
Q CHAHAL likely another name
And I just logged it!
FISCHY1 on… actually I don’t remember. My first thought was “fishy” as in “suspicious”, but really the owner probably just enjoys fishing. ETA: Google tells me “fisch” with that spelling has something to do with Roblox. So maybe it’s that. Or maybe the proper spelling was just already taken.
2CHEEP on a Tesla Model Y. Either the owner loves things that are too cheap (but that doesn’t seem like the type who would buy a Tesla), or the owner loves to make “cheep cheep” sounds like a chick.
SLODIVE on a Subaru. My first thought was “slow dive”, but then I realized it’s probably a diver from San Luis Obispo.
LDPETEM on a Ford Maverick (as in the new small pickup, not the 1970s compact car). I have no idea.
I saw one more, but that one got erased my memory banks when I tried to memorize the one above.
Love dogs; pet 'em? LDPE is the plastic Saran wrap and such is made from. Not sure that helps any.
Scored a few on today’s morning sojourn:
-
SIP⎵⎵2 on a FL standard plate on a Jeep Wagoneer mongo SUV. I don’t know what it sips, but I’m sure it ain’t gasoline.
-
IDW⎵2GO on a FL standard plate on a compact hatchback. IDW = “I don’t want”? A headscratcher.
-
BEACH on a New Hampshire plate.
-
IPARK on a FL standard plate on a Model S. The car was, indeed, parked when I saw it. I wonder if it did it unassisted?
-
LPG on a FL standard plate on a newish Genesis. Almost certainly initials, but it got me to thinking: When was the last time any of us heard about converting cars to run on LPG or LNG? For awhile that was the wave of the future, the Next Big Thing. Now it sounds so 1980s.
-
-DAWN- on an out of state plate I could not recognize in the time I had it in sight.
-
ROLL⎵TYD on a FL standard plate on a SUV. Evidently a fan of Alabama Athletics.
-
2NOLZ on a FL 5-character Florida State University Seminoles booster plate on a jeep. The team’s nickname is the 'Noles. Florida State University Athletics.
That’s a good one!
1 TOY 1 on a Tahoe this morning. Not sure of the significance there but it’s the second plate I’ve seen in a week or so’s time with the 1 XXX 1 format.
I don’t want to go?
While out to lunch I spotted 1JETZT on a Tesla Model X Plaid. Given the high performance nature of the “Plaid” model, maybe it doesn’t refer to a literal jet, but just to the car’s fast acceleration. Or maybe a strange spelling of “jet set”. I’m not sure what the ZT would mean otherwise.
I’m thinking jet set.
Some more today:
BULL G8R; interestingly, on a nice Mercedes Benz sedan
GD ZOOKZ gad zooks!
MYGUYZ
4 MANDY J
ROAR E on a Mustang Mach E; if his name is Rory then that’s extra clever
KEYSTON maybe they’re from Pennsylvania?
WEDIRT on a 4x4 pickup
VEUVE DJ veuve = widow; widow of the day?
SLAM VAN on a minivan
“Jetzt” is the German word for “now”. So maybe “one now” as in I’ve joined the Tesla Borg, or maybe as in “It’s so fast I’m already there now”. I don’t think that’s likely, just adding a guess to the mix.
And this evening I spotted:
TSASSY1 on some crossover, I think a Mazda. Probably “The sassy one”. But I like to think they cleverly combined “TSA” and “sassy” and are a sassy TSA agent.
BECKYLU on some sedan. Presumably the driver’s name.
NAWWW on a Mitsubishi Evo. Presumably “Nawww, you can’t beat me, pass me, etc.”
That was actually a Chrysler Pacifica.
