I don't get this license plate

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

A photo was posted on a car site and a quick note telling about how popular it was and how a old lady didn’t get it. Well I don’t get it either:

I interpret it as “for fuck’s sake”.

“For fuck’s sake!”

Which makes you wonder how that got past the DMV’s censors, since profanity isn’t usually allowed on personalized plates. I assume that applies to plates that are meant to be pronounced like dirty words, even if they’re not spelled like them.

I’m an old lady, and I got the same interpretation as the previous posters.

Clearly, if someone at that state’s DMV looked at it, they gave it a cursory look, and the meaning didn’t immediately register with them.

What I’m thinking is that they probably have some computer algorithm to filter the actual dirty words, which obviously didn’t catch this since it’s spelled “fox”. I suspect they rely on complaints from motorists to police the ones like this when they get through.

Got it! The page about it was mentioning emojis and that’s what I thought it was. Here is the web page about it. Apparently the local DMV people knew what it meant:

Ditto for me.

I’ve been watching a show named after a license plate.

NOS4A2

Can you guess what it is? I had to look it up, and felt stupid afterwords. Lol

11

Nosferatu?

Well, I didn’t get it, but I’m going to hijack this to mention a vanity plate I saw last night…

CIA GRAD

Chef or poser?

13

I saw one years ago: BREAD8

14

All the others in this thread I didn’t even have to think about, but I don’t get what this is supposed to mean. Bread-ate? Brea-date?

Or is the guy just a baker and Bread1-7 were taken?

15

LOL! I kinda knew what it was, but didn’t know how to spell it!:smack:

Hint: You gotta be familiar with Spanish- including the vulgar words. :slight_smile:

17

Here’s one I saw over 20 years ago (that’s important): CAT AMT

Question is what type of car was it on that made me smile at seeing it?

18

A guy I knew in high school had TRUCK2 on his pickup for exactly that reason – TRUCK and TRUCK1 were already taken.

But in line with the OP, I saw a pickup today with TRUKYOU.

I’m sure that refers to the University on the Truk Islands in the Pacific. Probably a student.
