I love trying to figure out the plates....

MPTYTOMB is one of my favorites and until I said it out loud I couldn't figure it out. LOL

I saw a very rude one yesterday and it really offended me.

OMG WTF I didn't think they were aloud to put these on the plates. I guess I was wrong.

Great thread,
Amy

OMG WTF? haha- pretty funny how someone actually put that on their plates. there was a special on the news a month back or so that talked about vanity plates and how acronyms are so much more popular because of texting.

the WTF ones are supposed to be pulled and not allow any new ones. NJ was one of the first states to take action on it- the funny thing was on their DMV site (or whatever they call it), the sample plate was something like WTF 123- interesting.

My plates are 3BOYZNME wich was great until we brought our daughter home, now I get more comments on needing to change my plates...just can't come up with something that works yet. I tell them that Maya has become the "me" instead of myself with her 3 brothers. Any suggestions?

Our neighbor is a dentist and he has cute tags on two of his cars. We can have up to 7 characters on our tags in MS.

I believe that there is no such thing as an unwanted child, just unfound families.

"They came to realize family need not be defined merely as those with whom they share blood, but as those for whom they would give their blood." - D!ckens

Birth is an act of nature. Adoption is an act of God.

Mine says ALRDTHER.

No one ever gets it, especially because the D looks like an O. I'm constantly being asked, "who is Al Rother"? It's supposed to mean Already There...for the Lonestar song. The song reminds me of my dad who passed away in an accident almost 7 years ago. I think of him as being "already there".

I read an article a few weeks ago about DMV actually issued a woman a tag that started with WTF..and she wanted a new one.

My parents have been exercise fanatics for the past 40 years and my dad's license plate said XRCISE.
