I just read a story about a lady who had her vanity plates revoked after sporting them for several years. They read: “2INPINK” She claims it was for her two daughters - two in pink, but apparently the DMV thought she was a shocker fan. ---

What’s a shocker fan? ---

Someone who is a fan of the shocker, of course. I’d tell you to google it - but that would be a bad idea. [spoiler] The description of the shocker is: “two in the pink, one in the stink” The two being the index finger and middle finger. The one is the pinkie. Then there’s the super-shocker. Two in the pink one in the stink hand on the tit tongue on the clit [/spoiler] ---

Two last week: A large black SUV (Escalade, I think?) [DTH-STAR] (Star Wars Death Star reference.) Volvo wagon with [AHARE L8] (Alice in Wonderland reference? Plus “a hair late”, and possibly also the person’s last name?) It works on so many levels, I only wish it had been on a VW rabbit. ---

So many great ones in this thread! (I came in to post the Fit “2B Tied” That I saw here in California and am cheesed that someone had already seen it elsewhere.) Ones I’ve seen that I can remember: On a dark maroon/purpley car: CABERN8 (Cabernet) On a Jaguar or something: “HOBEAUX” (HoBo) And no lie, I swear I’m not kidding, I saw “LOL WTF”. My personal one is PSBFAN1 - (which I’ve had people follow me into parking lots and whatnot to ask about it.) Any guesses? (I’d be shocked if anyone recognized the reference.) \*It’s only like $35/year or something here in CA to get a vanity plate, so why not?
