Leading me to wonder whether everyone is getting "euphoric state" out of it like they should. I couldn't go with the "IC", it was taken, had to use "IK" which I actually thought would make it easier.

How about your surname if the IRS isn't after you.

Thank you. I've just had a number of people look puzzled and ask, and I was starting to wonder.

A plate that made me laugh the most (and I'm repeating myself), was on a Subaru WRX STI that was all kitted out - plate said 'SEENOEVO"

Took me a second but I figured it out. Also, saw a similar Subaru a few years ago.

From my favorite movie, I'd love to have RINZLER, but some lame ass with a 2017 automatic V6 Camaro has the plate currently. Guess I would have to settle for RNZLR, it's just not nearly as cool. I would already have paid for the former one, if it were available.

Btw, Rinzler's colors are black and orange, fitting for the SO on my M2C.

EDIT: R1NZLER would work... hmmmmm

California runs vanity plates through a database that includes most languages spoken today, plus fictional languages like Klingon and Dothraki.

A Sacramento newspaper columnist used to write about funny license plates. One day he mentioned one that said "TP U BG." That's shorthand used on court reporters' machines; TP stands for an "F" sound, BG makes a "K" and... well, you figured it out.

When DMV contacted her, she claimed it was from her son's favorite story, The Little Engine that Could, where a small locomotive says, "If you can" as it climbs a steep hill. Apparently TP can also mean "if" and BG can mean "can." DMV didn't believe her and cancelled the plate.

That seems like it could be a dangerous ambiguity. What would happen to live closed captioning if a presidential candidate said "if you can" during a debate and it got translated as an F-bomb?

I had a buddy who had OMW2FYB. Had it for a couple years actually, but when the DMV contacted him he tried to make them believe it stood for "On My Way 2 Fix You Breakfast," but they didn't fall for it.

Although I have vanity plates on two of my three vehicles, I now prefer to creatively express my opinions with custom plate frames. No gob'ment censors, no 8 character limits, and no recurring fees:



The only one that I hesitate to put on is my "Ask Me About My Carbon Footprint" plate frame that I made for my diesel pickup, because it might trigger an environmentalist to vandalize my truck.....
