Who needs a blog when you’ve got a license plate?
The endless flow of commuters traveling in and out of DC from neighboring Virginia – where a vanity plate only costs an extra $10 – provides for a pretty good amount of reading material on the roads. Sometimes, however, seven little letters just won’t suffice. That’s when you need foot-high letters that communicate your message. I doubt any of us understand what that message is, but we all saw it – possibly even from orbit.
Even though I can’t quite figure out the meaning here, this glittering abomination is still better than the plate I saw several years ago, which I’ll place below the fold for our more delicate readers.

Apparently this was obscure enough to get past the censors in 2002 when I saw it but it’s since been recalled – searching on the Virginia DMV website shows the plate as “not available” rather than “taken.” I’m not sure if I’m pleased or disappointed that this word has become well-known enough to trigger the obscenity filters at the DMV.
