HAGNDAZ (Haggen-Dazs ice cream),
APPLE PI (Apple pie for nerds),
and CAKE last week...
This week I am going to eat nothing but SALADZ (and leftovers, of course).
Kate found this Lovin' the Lord Sunday gem, HVN R HL (Heaven or Hell?). She writes: Welll....hmmmm....lemme think about that for a minute.
For everyone who has survived or currently has the Swine Flu (or H1N1 as they are calling it these days), I present to you the SQUEALR from platty. The custom (and I'm pretty sure it's custom) license plate holder reads GO HOG WILD. Oink!
Sarah sent in 18 N UP (18 and up). I am assuming this is referring to a law that describes how it's illegal to have sexual relations between two individuals when one of the participants is below the legal age to consent to that behavior. In this case, it's 18 years old.
The only turkey plate I could find in the archives was from Michelle B, GOBBLR 3. I can only hope this car is being piloted by a real-live turkey. Gobble, gobble, gobble.
THKSx2 (thanks times two? Thanks, thanks?) is from Misha H. She thinks, however, that this driver may be giving thanks for another reason. She writes: The alimony payments must be hefty.
Our last plate today comes from MooseNuggette, GVTHNX (Give thanks). That "x" is a bit nauseating, no?
Kelly T. is submitting her husband's plate, BANANAZ. All I have to say is, "That vanity plate is bananas! B-A-N-A-N-A-S!"
CHERRY is from MooseNuggette. Really? I wonder if this driver knows what that is slang for?
Our last plate is from Sam. She managed to stealthily catch ONION 4. Fresh, frozen, canned, caramelized, pickled, powdered, chopped, and dehydrated... How does one's obsession with a vegetable get this far?!
PICKLES is from Clayton W. and as you can see it looks a bit funny. That's because it's from Australia. We're glad to see the plate rage has spread world-wide.
Our second plate is from Allison A. It reads KRISPIE, as in Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. I only hope you tried to follow this car until doughnuts started to fly out the back. Um, seriously, that would be the best day of my life.
The last plate today is CA-V-R (Caviar) and was captured by April H. This plate really confuses me. What is the appeal of labeling your car with pricey salted fish eggs? Or are you really that smug?
LadyStyx took this picture of SENSUAL. Sensual as in, arousing or exciting the senses? Of, relating to, given to, or providing gratification of the physical and especially the sexual appetites?
Because this vanity plate is equally as creepy, I am adding in DELISH captured by Erika S. Is this driver really labeling themselves as tasty? Ew!
DOXOLOG is from Jason G. I know this is supposed to read "Doxology," meaning a short hymn of praises to God in various Christian worship services. But it looks more to me like "Doxo Log."
Since it's one of my favorite categories, I am going to bring you a few more misinterpretations for your viewing pleasure today.
Our last is from Crystal, 1BEBE. She writes: Did the shark eat 1 bebe?
I believe the only appropriate response to this would be:
SYKO comes to us from a member of our Alaskian platerazzi, MooseNuggette. I assume this plate is referring to this drivers mental status, "psycho." According to wikipedia: Psycho is a slang word for a person who is either psychopathic or psychotic. The term is often considered mildly offensive or derogatory.Yeah it sounds like a great idea to give a license to someone who frequently loses contact with reality.
Oh, and have I mentioned the delusions and hallucinations? They make driving such a task. Watch out for that giant purple-spotted unicorn near Main Street. It will eat you!
How else is one to inform the masses that they are extremely attractive and adorable? A vanity plate, of course. Our first, IMAQT1 (I'm a cute one), is from Alison B. She writes: This took my breath away... on a number of levels. Ugh...
Jamie sent in QTY P2T. Cutie Patootie is defined as: Someone or something so cute that the word cute itself had to morph into something cuter. 
Tina sent in these next two. She writes: "IMA-QDE" kind of goes along with the one I sent you a while back that said "TOQT4U"-- one thing we apparently don't lack here (aside from vanity plates) is self-esteem. 
Yay, Virginia. 
CUTE ZE is from THE GRAMMARPHILE. Her only thoughts were: The "CUTE ZE" one actually makes me a little queasy, haha. 
Gina G. managed to capture a picture of DRUNKY for us. She writes:I swear to beer I didn't drink God. *hiccup*
*title came from this hilarious website: TFLN
Sarah K. sent us CUTHEIR (See you there?).
Seriously? Where did you get your education? It's EDUCATION. You're going to look really stupid if you spell it any other way (Plate is from LadyStyx).
See also: Those that can't do, teach, and those that can't teach... teach gym.
Queendork76 captured this week's Lovin' the Lord plate, F8HN-HIM. That 8 is making my eye twitch though. F'eight'h in him? I mean, it kind of works, but trying to say that aloud just resulted in spit all over my computer screen. Thanks for that.
John S. managed to snap a picture of this geeky vanity plate, 1 UP. He writes:... As in Super Mario Brothers. From wikipedia I learned: These mushrooms have green caps with white spots (originally orange caps with green spots). When Mario picks up one of these mushrooms, he is given an extra life... In some games, these are called "Ultra Shrooms", which replenish large amounts of health.
Ultra geeky, but I kind of like it.
Brianne O. sent in A BRAT and wrote: The little kid in me can't help but respond to this, "I know you are but what am I?"
Check out this plate that Laura P. sent to us, DABRATT. The license plate hold reads, "Always late, but worth the wait." Try not to injure your eye sockets from the sheer force of your eye balls rolling back into them. Might be a fan of the rapper too?
This BRAT comes from Georgina S. I don't know, maybe these people are really big fans of bratwurst? Because nothing says "vanity plate" to me like slang words for German sausage, you know?
Finally we have X BRAT X from LadyStyx. That "X" theme seems to be a popular trend in vanity plates these days. Idea get rejected? Just put X's around it!
Kate sent us HZPNSHN. She writes: My first thought is.....nasty divorce!?!? Ha haaaaa!! Daaang!That's right, it says "his pension." Which means this ex-wife bought a Chrysler minivan with her ex-husband's retirement fund and has decided to brag about it on her van.
Virginia, you make my head want to explode.
MooseNuggette sent in WASHIS (was his). This GoldWing motorcycle also has a vanity plate holder which reads: Her Diamond Wing. How romantic!
TROFYWIF (Trophy Wife) was captured by Bonnie R. A "trophy wife" is defined as:
Donna F. sent us this gem, SXY T1ME (Sexy Time?). She writes: My only thought was "oh my god that does NOT say sexy time! Oh glory, yes it does!"
Crazy Cat Lady Carm sent us this gem the other day. She writes: My son Eric just sent this one... I think this is the best one yet!
Amanda M. sends us GODSPD. She writes: It looks like it's supposed to be "God speed", but I first read it as "God SPED" (Special Ed) and I thought to myself "Hey! That isn't very nice..."
Miki P. sent us LESBIAN with this note: I took this photo at Burning Man, which is why everything looks so dusty. Note the correct spelling and complete lack of numbers substituted for letters. This is a California plate too, which makes me wonder how long this lesbian has been around to score that while it was still available.
NOBOYZ is from LadyStyx. I think this is probably referring to a family with only female children, but you need to understand that this is the lesbian post, so there it is.
Who will we the catch next with our gaydar?
Patricia caught this plate, ADOLPH2, in Kentucky. I mean, does this really mean what I think it does? Adolf Hitler? You have got to be kidding! And did you need to add that 2 because ADOLPH and ADOLPH1 were already taken? Are you serious? Maybe this kid is all grown up? Redonkulous, I tell you.
The Washington Redskins are a professional American football team based in the Washington, D.C. area. Jason G. sent us this plate, 4SKINZ which I assume, based on this driver's decorative ribbon and specialty plate that he is, "For the Redskins."
Ah yes, the only reason I plan to have children -- I might need one of their kidneys some day. 1KIDNEY was snapped by Natalie B. who writes: A bit more information than I care to know about my fellow drivers...
