I love seeing clever license plates. My all time favorite was in NC outside of a daycare: PB4UGO.

Colorado recently rejected a vanity plate from a vegan lover of tofu : ILVTOFU LA Times (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-tofu10-2009may10,0,216272.story)

Do you smell something?
Several years ago a local web artist tooled around town with a tag that advertised her profession: the art of making GIF images ... GIFART

And I'm sorry, this has been posted before, I know it is politically incorrect, and subjectively improbable, but THIS ONE is also hilarious.

A lady named Fiona Richmond (wife/girlfriend of Paul Raymond who owned large chunks of London's Soho) famously used to drive a large expensive car with the license plate FU 2

The other day, I stopped at a light behind a woman on a Harley. Her license plate read MYVBRTR. My wife and I had a good laugh at the woman's sense of humor. Only after the light turned green and she sped off, did I then remember my new cell phone has a camera.

This thread reminded me of the lead photo for an article about White Tail Park that ran in the Newport News Daily Press back in 1988.

I remember years ago seeing a T-Bird in a grocery store parking lot with a plate that read "CAJONES" and I said to myself, "How in the heck did this guy get away with that?" Just at that time the owner arrived, and 'lo, he was a she. She went on to explain that she got away with it because her name is Carol A. Jones....I didn't make her prove it 'cause it didn't matter.

I liked one on a Chevy Dually. It was MYNSBGR.

I also wonder if someone could get approved to use the name of a city in Thailand: PHUKET. (I hope this doesn't offend anyone; it really is a city in Thailand.)

I read that a man in California had a plate reading IVNIK8. He drove it for a while until someone caught on.

Can you figure it out?

"Cajones" is Spanish for boxes, or canyon (as in Grand Canyon) and does not seem to call for any special attention. Now, if the lady's name had been Carol O. Jones that might be something else.

I had the same plate ( with a "U" at the end ) approved by the state and mailed to me. Before I could put it on my truck I received a registered letter telling me "DO NOT DISPLAY" this tag and to destroy it. I still have it:)

Okay, we know it's fornicate

Now I ask you why would anyone want such on a license plate to be seen by anyone looking at your plates????

What is funny about this? Maybe I am too old to see any humor in this. :)

Folks,

I meant this to be funny license plates, not sexually explicit ones. Now Naturist Mark's AARRR plate next to the pirate symbol is the idea. That will make you chuckle. Now that BLOND license plate, I don't get it. (Guess my hair color!!)

I'm 46 now, and no I don't find it funny & I wouldn't want to see it on the car in front of me----But when you're 20, in college, & in a fraternity it was hilarious:)
