Yup. We get most punctuation marks. Though they don’t “count” for differentiating plates. Once someone took CTHULHU, you couldn’t get a plate that had the same letters plus punctuation.

3M TA3 looks like “EAT ME” in the rearview mirror.

I took a picture the other day of an Audi with the license plate INNIE. Cute!

Saw a car on the way home the other day that said BCH LVR.

Just saw YR MOMMA the other day. (It may have been one character shorter)

Yesterday I saw YLDFLWR. Wish I remember the make/model of car to see if it added to that.

Saw a black motocycle the other day, with a plate that said “[NZGUL](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazgul)”. I think I’m in love.

Also spent a truly pathetic amount of time trying to decipher “dwgwvr.” The kennel club, and golden retriever bumper stickers should have been a clue, huh?

Has this been posted yet? Saw a Honda Element last summer at a concert, with “FIFTH” on the license plate.

We guffawed mightily.

Busy week or so, I’ve seen:

CRASH1 - too suggestive for me to get  
R9 KIDDZ - I thought eight was enough  
NAVG8EE - always being told where to go?  
HNY BEE  
RIP MUFF - Noooooooo!!!  
ICREE8  
MANOR - on a Bentley Convertible  
UR DVINE - I am not a fat transvestite! (I’m assuming it’s a deeply religious person)  
PULSE8 - on a 911 Cabrio  
SOINTLI - this made me “Nyuk nyuk”  
NTICEME -

No idea what it might mean. Thoughts?

Some years ago saw a stunning blonde in a Jag convertible with “HEODME” (He owed me) Must have been her divorce settlement.

I once had “OKYNOT” (OK- Why not?) and pulled up next to a gal with “YNOTME” plates…the guy in the car with her discouraged any funny remarks from me, however.

I have taken pictures of two- one was a BMW at Starbucks that said “APOLOGY” and the other is in our neighborhood- a Prius that says “ONE PCT.”

The two most memorable ones I’ve seen are:

KHAAAAAN (Seen at least 2 different times)  
SCONE!!! My wife thinks this is a reference to South Carolina being number one (we live in Charlotte, next to the SC border), but my preferred interpretation is a love for British breads.

Mine says EDITER.

Okay, it doesn’t, presently. But I always wanted that one. The thing is, I’m afraid someone will think I f’d up unknowingly!

This morning, a beat-up jeep, matte black with mud everywhere and a loose canvas top:

INFIDEL

I’ve seen a Toyota Prius with GOT BRKS (Got brakes?)

Also a car with SFG 2010 (the SF Giants won the World Series in 2010)

Celtling and I both had a great giggle:

A little black station wagon with a [pirate sticker](http://www.cafepress.com/+eyepatch_skull_crossed_swords_oval_sticker,133577914) on the back windshield and the license plate :
