Reminds me of one I ran across a few weeks back: HCKYSTD

Now, I strongly suspect it's short for Hockey Stud, but I couldn't help trying to read it as Hickey STD.

One of the most pleasing set of vanity plates I've seen recently was on one of those cubic Scions and read "IMNABOX."

Vanity plates are like User Titles that only allow 7 characters.

Y'know, if I had a car worth a shit, I'd absolutely get my handle as a vanity plate.

Yeah, but you see, JEFFOOL would actually be a cool plate and informative too. But the people who do get them just get things like "2HOT4U" or "SS UTE", like you wouldn't notice their car is a ute and has badges that say "SS" all over it.
