I love creative license plates. Here are "red lists of banned tags, letters taking umbrage at supposedly offensive plates, official letters notifying drivers that their plate is objectionable, plate holders's passionate pleas to keep their beloved tags, and more" from The Smoking Gun. Make sure to hit the "Letters of Complaint" section first. Apparently saying "RAIN SUX" is a very bad thing -- and quite offensive -- here in Florida. And of course, the best accidental plate ever, also from right here in the Sunshine State! (Link from The Smoking Gun.)

P.S. I think I'm related to this guy. At least, I want to be...



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



3MTA3 has always been a fav but is on a global ban list.

How funny! I had just posted in my blog about the Marilyn Manson and Martha Stewart story when I popped over and saw your post, lol, so I had to update my blog with your post! I love the smoking gun!

Yeah, I've always been a fan of 3MTA3 too, but there's still a bunch of personalized license plates that I've seen that aren't offensive but still cute... Like my friend's purple Rav4 with "ROFLMAO" for a license plate. Or the silver bug here with the airbrushed roadrunner on the doors with the license plate of "Meep x2".

Ah, what a perfect way to start my morning. My whole office is laughing at this stuff. Thanks --

My parents still get fumed whenever I say the phrase "sucks." I never understood why as a kid until one day my mom finally explained the world of fellatio to me. I don't remember the look on her face when I replied, "You perv!" because she slapped me pretty damn hard. Heh. But I still think it's ridiculous how people try to impose their overly sexualized interpretations on a simple word.

Vacuum cleaners suck.
Straws are used to suck.
When you drive a convertible, rain sucks.

I mean do these people really append the word "dick" to the end of every sentence in which SUX is the verb? Hmm? And what kind of 4 year old child does he have that would be not only able to read the license plate, but get the whole sux connotations?

Ahhhh, but Veshka, ROTFLMAO impies the word "ass" in there somewhere -- and we just can't have that. Nope, not at all. It's offensive. Not funny in the slightest -- regardless that the person who said it may, in fact, really have been laughing at the time it was uttered. What state are they in? I have a letter to write...

I always wanted to get NE1469, but never had the balls to do it. So I've settled for FOOPIX

one of my favorites was "X QQQ ME" on a minivan in Florida... :)

OMG, you're right! And not only does it imply the word "ass", it also implies that it falls off! Body mutilation! Geeze! I should help you with that letter writing :)

And then there's my uncle's old license plates, "FN 99"...
