Vanity license plates

"Moist" -- That was the vanity tag of a secretary where I worked in the '80s.

I think they are really stupid.

I tried and tried, but Colorado just would NOT permit me to use NO 16OZ HARLOT as a vanity plate.

If you have vanity license plates it is harder to go on a crime spree because the plate is easier to remember.

I’ve seen some that were harder to remember because they were vanity plates. And I think about those things like if the person was fleeing a bank robbery or something.

There’s a plate near me:

1III11II

Here it looks relatively obvious, but on a license plate it doesn’t.

R5 Okay, I must be missing the obvious....what is that?

R5 Not obvious to me...can you interpret for those us who aren't getting it?

A combination of ones and the letter I.

If you had to look quickly at it you’d never be able to tell which one is an I and which one is a 1. And even if you did, was it three ones and two Is, etc.

R8 OK. I thought it somehow magically spelled a message.

It does R9.

It does? I’m the guy who posted it and I don’t even see that.

I saw one the other day - SWIFTIE.

I really hope it wasn't a Taylor Swift fan.

R8 That is so fucking stupid. Are you R5? What a stupid post. A string of 1l1l1l is interesting or clever? Yikes.

Changing the subject, Minnie Driver reads the rejected names of race horses owned by DLers.

Calm the fuck down ya cunt.

I never said anywhere it was interesting or clever. I said it’s a real license plate of someone who lives near me and would be hard to decipher and remember if they ever committed a crime. WTF is your problem?

Once while driving on Sunset in Silver Lake, I saw a plate that read 9INUNCT. I couldn't believe that got past inspection. Then I tried to follow the car to get a good glimpse of the driver and get his attention, but I lost him at an intersection.

I submitted HOOKER and it passed then I got a letter saying it was denied. I called to complain and they told me they were not going to have someone drive around with a license plate that says HOOKER. I lied and told them my dad wrote TJ HOOKER and that was why I wanted it. I almost got away with it.
