Nice.

I saw a delightful plate on 15th Wednesday evening. It said "ANKER," which wasn't especially exciting until you noticed that it was printed on one of the UW vanity plates with the big purple W positioned before the ANKER.

Back at college (Savannah College of Art and Design) it wasn't unusual to see a urinal with R. Mutt scribbled on it in black marker. That's the kind of tagging I admire. One of the stall walls was inscribed with "wait here, Godot."

Funny.. the only vanity plates I ever see are the ones attached to Hummers and Mustangs that read "Hummr," "Vroom," or "Mustng."

It seems that, along with a distasteful choice in vehicles, Ohioans are just not that creative.

My pretentious asshole ex-boyfriend would come in his pants if he saw this, which is why I hate him AND the people who drive that stupid Soob.

Now if you'll excuse me - I think I'll just go play chess.

It looks like last fall a person by the name of LISA JEAN VON TROTHA had that plate on a Green 4D Suburu. Also in the fall she was cited for "DRIVING W/O MOTOR VEHICLE INSURANCE" and "RED LIGHT."

(So says http://publicinformation.seattle.gov/cpi… )

LOVE IT!!!

i know that guy. he was my neighbor in the u-district. he used to be a dada scholar.

Hey everyone my wife saw all your posts and had to pass it on to me. I own the white Legacy in the U-District. When my wife asked me if we could have heated seats installed in the car we just bought I knew immediately which license plate I had to get. Besides how many people can have an entire french sentence on their license plate. Many thanks to my art history teacher who exposed me to Duchamp.
