That was my thought, but why they didn’t go for an MD plate as well? They’re pretty commonly used around here.
MAMBA I and IRONHYD on the way to the grocery store this morning.
This morning I spotted HOOOOON on a Toyota Tundra.
Followed D ORNG Z on a new orange Z
Saw LVJSUS in the Meijer parking lot this morning. Also saw the MOON13 I mentioned upthread. That one is either a Meijer employee or that was one heck of a coincidence that I’ve seen it twice in the same parking lot.
BAYLIE on a Toyota Highlander. My brain initially parsed it as “bay lie”. But it could possibly be an unusual spelling of “Bailey”.
BEPI 82 on a Honda CRV. Maybe that’s a nickname or initials, and they were born in '82? ETA: Google does suggest that Bepi is a somewhat common nickname in Italy.
Saw HOTAK on the way home from the office. No clue there. Someone’s name? Hot Alaska?
THE CPT on a camper van with Vermont plates. The Captain, I presume. I don’t know if the driver’s simply the captain of that van, or is a retired captain of some vessel, of retired from the military with that rank. Whatever it is, they were far from home.
FNCBLDR on a Chevy Silvarado. Fence Builder, presumably.
Maybe their lady is named Tennile? ![]()
Two in the parking lot at work today:
- AADRITI - Not sure about this one
- LCKY4ME - Lucky for me
I also spotted one in the parking lot at work when I went out to lunch today:
OTAKU91 on a Prius. I just Googled “otaku” and apparently it’s “a Japanese term for people with obsessive, intense interests in specific subcultures, most commonly anime, manga, video games, computers, and, in some cases, idols or military history.” So basically the equivalent of “geek” or “nerd”. So I’m guessing the owner considers themself to be an otaku, and was born in '91.
Saw D1RTYMX on what was a very dirty truck this morning. If that means what my brain went to first I’m surprised it got past the censors.
I guess my mind isn’t as dirty as yours because to me it just goes to dirty mix, which could mean anything from drinks, to just about anything that normally gets dirty. It could be just dirty Max who does is dirty for going off road a lot because they happen to just LV␣EARTH.
I think just about anyone can be LVABLE and it is important to have a LVN␣FMLY because that makes for a GR8HOM even if you are a HKYREF and people insult you because you put their favorite player in the penalty box.
Speaking of which, this weekend (in the US) don’t just say OK␣K4REN when speaking to your KTYMOM or MT␣MOM1, because even if you have a TUFMUM, I am sure they would like to hear some kind words that make them say I LVMKDS.

1 There was a school logo on this one but I can’t remember from what university it was.
SGNRT3 on a truck for a company called Sign Art, so that’s a no brainer.
THE CPT on a camper van with Vermont plates.
Interestingly I saw The Captain again last night, heading in the opposite direction. That is, that morning when I was driving to the office he was going the same direction as me, and then that evening when I was going home he was also going the same direction as me.
This morning I saw 86T on a Toyota 86, which should be self explanatory.
AND4EVR A sweetheart’s initials I’m guessing. There was a US Army sticker for what that’s worth.
AND4EVR A sweetheart’s initials I’m guessing.
Or perhaps simply “and forever.”
On a black Porsche Cayenne, CA plates but clearly a Chicago fan: CUBZIN7
Saw D1RTYMX on what was a very dirty truck this morning.
MX is also the standard abbreviation for “motocross”: the sport of racing motorcycles on semi-prepared trails over hill and dale, often in some mud. BMX is bicycle motocross. In either case, after a day at the track the rider and bike will be coated in mess. Which inevitably gets into/onto the truck.
So there’s another possibility.
I’ve got a fairly dirty mind and like to think I’m good at double entendres. I have no good idea what you’re insinuating. MX for “minx” maybe?
