ELMACHO (El macho) is from Tim B. "Macho," from the Spanish word "machismo," is prominently exhibited or excessive masculinity;
Prominently exhibited, excessively swinging balls, for example.
Okay, we get it. Now we are going to pull over to barf in a trashcan.

Do I really want to be a macho man?

Winnie the Poop
ILKPOOH is from John K. I understand that that this driver might be a fan of Winnie the Pooh, but just say this plate out loud to yourself. Yeah, they like poo. Or better yet, they lick poo. And if they don't lick poo? Well that still leaves the possibility of this driver licking a children's story character.
Oh but wait! There's more!POOHNUT comes to us from Amanda. I'm am just NUTS about feces! Or maybe this is just a descriptive term for already digested nuts?
The possibilities are endless.

She's got more crabs than a Red Lobster
Nice parking job! Let's zoom on that plate a little, shall we?
Great. Now I can personalize my comment: Nice parking job, FLOOZI. According to Mariam-Webster, a floozy is a usually young woman of loose morals.
Amanda C. writes: Yeah, at first I figured some high-maintenance women drove this car. But then, a high-maintenance MAN walks over from the adjacent Qdoba and gets in. Then jumps the curb on the way out of the parking lot. All around classy.
I love it. Some people will do anything for a burrito.

Where does a woodsman keep his pigs? In his hog cabin!
Patricia B. sent us this HOGASM. She writes:
When I saw this plate, it made me almost barfgasm. Also, depending on the spacing of the letters in your mind... I mean, dang, when did the Kentucky DOT hire someone from Virginia to check the license plates??
Oooh Virginia burn! And yes, I think this is the combination of "hog" and, well, you get the picture, don't you?

Is that some sort of handshake?
Jasmine sent in today's plate: KAMLTOW. She writes: All the VA plates are starting to embarrass me. I saw this in front of an art gallery by the ODU campus. Very classy? I think so.
I asked an older co-worker what she thought this meant and her response was this: Camel Toe? Is that some sort of handshake?
No. Actually, Cameltoe is a slang term that refers to the outline of the female [hay-nanny-nanny] seen through tight clothes. Male organs showing through clothes at the crotch may be called moose knuckle.
Moose knuckle?! Ha! You learn something new everyday. Thanks, Wikipedia!

I brake for NOTHING!
Tim sent in KYLNSHT. I'm pretty sure this is a Jeep (that he owns?), and, surprisingly, it has a plate that doesn't reference the fact that it's a Jeep. Does that say Killin' Sh*t?! I mean I've stared at this for about an hour and that's all I am coming up with. I'm impressed this got past the rigorous screeners at the South Carolina DMV. I also have a Facebook group you might be interested in, Timothy.
Our other South Carolina catches leave something to be desired.

I'm on my way to Georgia. Looking for a soul to steal.
Allen took today's photo of "ATAN." He writes:
Took this picture a few years ago. Not the best quality as it was taken from the car. It takes advantage of a Michigan State University license plate.
It certainly does. Now, instead of showing their love of the Spartans, this driver's plate reads: SATAN. Great, you are the devil. How pleasant.
More Satan plates here, if you are into that sort of thing.

Warning: Gas (For the next 100 miles)
Today's fresh, new, horrible license plate came from someone who didn't sign their name to their email (so if you took this photo, let me know) **EDIT: It's from Tim B!** STINKY, as in, you smell bad. In my mind, I imagine this is the Colorado DMV trying to play a trick on a gullible driver:
DMV Employee: Sir, I assure you. This is a randomized plate.
Man: Are you sure? I think that says "stinky."
DMV Employee: I'm not sure what you are talking about. The computer chooses the plates.
Man: *sigh* Whatever. [walks away with plate in hand]
DMV employee [whispers to himself]: I can't believe that actually worked. You are a god.

This is a favorite because of what happened in the comments. Take a look.
