A spate of amusing and tragic vanity license plates have recently crossed my path:
XPENSIVon a little blue corporate drone conformity-mobile. A BMW I think. The guy may have paid a lot for this car, but apparently he couldn’t afford the optional turn signal mechanism… I see him fairly often in traffic, driving like a complete jackass, and his license plate just begs for someone to key the bejeebers out of him.NET JEDIon an SUV last week. I am not sure whether I should be amused by this, sad for the driver, jealous of the driver, or sad for myself that I am slightly jealous.THE SUVon a Ford Explorer this morning. What? You’re driving an SUV? How startling, I hadn’t noticed!TIMMAYYon a purple PT Cruiser last Friday. Brilliant! This plate inspired me to try on my best Timmy voice and giggle incessantly for several miles as I followed it through traffic on my way home from the airport.
The moral? Don’t have a vanity plate that is stupid or that signals your willingness to exit the gene pool; choose wisely!

I saw a PT Cruiser the other day with plates reading “PT SNUZR”
But my favorite was the VW Bug I heard about in Redmond, WA, with plates reading “FEATURE”
I saw an SUV the other day that said IOU ZIP.
What an ass.
Okay, “FEATURE” is hands-down the best. license plate. EVER.
Yeah, I loved that one, especially considering the story came from Redmond, WA. =)
Is quite clearly the one I saw outside the Beachland after a show. It was WE R DEVO. And the best part? Around here, they very well might have been!
my favorite was “jamoke”
