Like A G6

I very much enjoyed this plate.

It was a G6 named GeeSix! I just really wanted to imagine that this person walked around life with this as their theme song

Pass the Relish: This Is How We All Feel

This driver managed to express how we all feel while driving in DC.

I imagine that as the zombie noise!

Thanks Haylee!

Oh, The Suspense!

So, I followed this truck for quite some time.

IT DROVE ME NUTS!

THIS TRUCK IS WHAT??!!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Pass the Relish: Muggle Life

This person isn't embarrassed to have no magical powers. Just happy to be part of the world. :-)

Pass The Relish: Thoughts on Obama

This one is from my sister Kristin.

"I don't know what a dog squeeze is, but apparently Obama is one lol."

So... I didn't know what Dog Squeeze was either, and I still don't think it's a thing, but according to Urban Dictionary, it's basically the poop that leaks out of small dogs if you squeeze them a little too hard when you pick them up. In so many words... it was Urban Dictionary, of course.

The (Not So) Simple Life

I really enjoy this one.

Hopefully this doesn't come off as mean spirited as it sounds now, but I just couldn't get over it - Living the simple life in a vehicle that costs more than I make in a year that gets 17 miles a gallon. We must have different definitions of "simple".

Domino's Gives You Wings

This one made me laugh SO hard. I know it's really grainy, but it was good enough to me that I thought I would share it anyway.

I thought it was Red Bull that gives you wings! Not Domino's! Or maybe it looks like a shark with the fin on top.

Sobriety Checkpoint...?

I got this one from a coworker who wishes to remain anonymous.

We were wondering if this was the work of a prankster who hacked into the display, or if it was a legitimate typo from the transit authority (or whomever programs these signs). Based on the odd punctuation, I'm going to assume 'prankster' but it's still funny either way.

Pass The Relish: Do you think they mean the car?

This one says Favorite Toy

But my question is: Which one is the favorite toy? The car, or the thing hanging off the bumper?

Bonus: The SLOW AS F*CK is a second-look laugh.
Thanks Beth!

Pass The Relish: Creative

They think they're so clever...

...creative, even?
Thanks Tish!

Pass The Relish: Checkmate

Checkmate!

Thanks, Julia!

Mom Jeans, Snickers, and Large Bras

This morning's drive took me 52% longer than the last few weeks' drive. Golly I was frustrated. Glad I had a book to listen to.
Anyway, given this morning's commute, and coming up on this evening's drive, I wanted to share with you my most amusing drive ever. Or at least in recent memory.

So first, I encountered this person. They think mighty highly of themselves. Not super amusing, but I got a quick giggle out of it.

Then I found this person. I was driving behind them thinking what on earth could ND be?? North Dakota? Do they even have any sports teams? 

Finally, I was able to get close enough to read the tag frame. 

"Neil Diamond Fan"

Even better, once I got even with her, she looked exactly like what I imagined this Neil Diamond fan looked like. (No hate on Neil Diamond or Neil Diamond fans. I can get down to some Sweet Caroline, too. But, when you think of a woman who is enough of a fan to make it her vanity plate and the plate frame, you KNOW that you get this image in your mind too)

Also, I think she was wearing a cat sweater...

I'm still not done. After Mom-jeans, I saw this little treat. I couldn't help but flat out laugh. I can't tell you how many times I've heard a woman under 5'4" say "I'm not short, I'm fun-sized." Like the individual Snickers for Halloween candy!
This Versa is saying "I'm not ridiculously compact, I'm fun-sized!"

As if this weren't enough giggles for one commute, as I got almost home, I noticed that someone had put a bra on this BIG statue on Rt. 5 in Charlotte Hall! I still have no idea what it's for, if anything.

 I circled back THREE times to try ad get a decent photo of her.

Giggles Galore.

Pass The Relish: Cherry Blossoms

This is too neat!
Hubs saw this car with all these cherry blossoms painted on it.

PTR: Nerd.

LOL

Byte it.
Thanks Shannon!

I FOUND NEMO!

This made me laaaaauuugggghhhhhh and laugh and laugh.

See the little spare tire?

It looks like Nemo with his Lucky Fin!

PTR: Beach Buggy

Here's another R&R dedicated vehicle from David:

Cute!

Pass the Relish: Vanity in Virginia

A few years ago, I read that Virginia has the most "Vanity" license plates.

Thanks to the internet, here's a version of the article I read. 

A few weeks ago, my friend Scott -a Virginian - sent me these. 

He said that he sees them all the time.

Here's a family that is sporting their loyalty to Volkswagen, I believe. Otherwise, perhaps they're a family that likes dubstep? 

Somebody enjoys being topless!

This one isn't vain at all, but I wanted to share it anyway. This is a nice opportunity to say THANK YOU to to this Army family and all of our Armed Forces.

Pass the Relish: or the Cerveza

Both Keri and Patty sent me this one - Cracked us all up.

Do you think that he gets pulled over more readily at 1 am than everyone else?

Maybe this is what he thinks about the whole way home - that would get anyone through a commute, I think!

But... Why?

So the person driving in front of me just opened the driver window, and dumped out an entire family size package of Twizzlers on to the road.

I can't, for the life of me, think of a reason to do that other than "Let's make the person behind us laugh!"

Pass the Relish: When You See It

This one is from Lauren.

BLU BLZ.
Hmmm. What could that mean? The truck is blue.
Blue Blaze? Blue Blues?

So, this one totally got me. I was concentrating so hard trying to figure out what the plate meant that I failed to understand what BLU BLZ meant, that I failed to see the blue truck balls that would have clued me in.

Sheesh.

Appreciation

The other day, I was driving on autopilot. You know what I mean - when you are driving, and paying attention to the road enough to do it correctly, but mentally just somewhere else? Well, I don't even remember what I was all up in my head about, but I took a wrong turn. My autopilot was taking me home instead of to the store where I had intended to go.

I got frustrated with myself. I didn't really want to go to the store anyway, because I just wanted to be home, but then to have to turn around... ugh.

But then, I saw this.

Pass the Relish: Work Pays

My wonderful Aunt Liz sent me this one. It says "WRKPAYS" and for those of you who can't immediately recognize it, this is a Pink Cadillac, which is a car provided to Mary Kay Sales people who sell something like $48,000 per calendar year.

That's pretty neat. I've never seen a Mary Kay Cadillac in person. I guess work does pay!

What a NASA Nerd!

This is SO CLEVER.

I giggled, then called my mom to tell her about it, then giggled some more, and then called my husband to tell him about it...

It's an Earth Rover, like... a Mars Rover.... but on Earth.... hahahahahahahaha

What's even better is that the Volt, like the Mars Rovers, is battery powered! (mostly, anyway...)

Also, those of you who know me well, know that I never miss an opportunity to advertise for NASA.
If you're at all interested in learning more about Mars Rovers or even just when Curiosity drew a penis on Mars, please head over to those links!

You can see it crying

What a sad little wiper.

It even has a little tear drop.

True, but not for the reason you think.

It says " ICULOKN "

Why yes, sir, I am looking. But I'm not looking because I'm impressed with your vehicle, I'm looking at your vanity plate.

A Tennessean

More than laughing at this plate by itself, we all had a wonderful time figuring out what it said.

Ate and Ace'n?

At Enacken?

... you know. For longer than it should have taken to hear "A Tennessean" 

Pass the Relish: Yes, Please.

Ok, twist my arm. 
Carrot cake or tiramisu?

Pass the Relish: Choices

So......I'm thinking SAT Prep was not a choise.

Giggles shared from Shannon

Pass the Relish: Criminal

Shannon's giggle of the day

...inal?

Fair warning

I am aware that I've been warned, but I'm not sure what I'm being warned about.

No Babies. Only Strollers.

This sign cracked me up.

I am completely aware that it just means that you must empty and fold up any strollers before bringing them on board, but the stupid way it's drawn with the baby in the stroller makes it look like babies aren't allowed, but strollers are.

Duck Truck

A duck hunter, I suppose. It would be fun if it were just a person who shared a love of ducks and duck feeding... but clever none the less.

High jinks

I wonder what 'HI JINX' this person is up to.

Note: I used to think high jinks meant something like shenanigans, but it really means "boisterous fun" which makes this EVEN BETTER.

A threat to Washingtonians

This 'Run Joe' can only be interpreted one way given the Dallas flags.

A company after my own heart

Rita's served up some giggles today with their sign

Vanilla....

.... All right stop, Collaborate and Listen....

A Cook-out

This would be even better if it were the convertible kind of Jeep.

I'd be in for a BBQ

Pass the Relish: Ultimate Dad Joke

So, this one is hard to read, but it's too funny not to share.

David passed this along. 

(It says LIC PLT, like licence plate?)

I'm so glad that's the car he's driving. I can imagine that this is the kind of person who finds that joke that ends with "That's the way the Mercedes Benz" absolutely hilarious. 

I have no idea what this is but that doesn't matter

I can't pretend to know what BEE WEE means, but saying it out loud was just so much fun that I repeated it in different voices and made myself giggle the whole way home.

Pass the Relish: No Longer Slim.

Shannon shared these with me:

"On the same road.... MS SLIM was following KUPKAKE. I have a feeling MS SLIM may need a new license plate."

Eventually.

Now this is the attitude I always have to remind myself to have, and it's sometimes a struggle.

We'll all be gettin' there eventually.

Mr. Fix-it

I'm not sure what you're fixing, sir, but it damn well isn't the environment in your 15 mpg Chevy Suburban. 

Just kidding, I'm sure you're super handy. 

A ride-or-die fan.

I'm totally making assumptions and judgments here... but the fact that it was a late-twenty-something preppy-ish white girl driving the car listening to pop music, I think it's a safe bet that it's all for Justin Timberlake. 

I feel you girl. I was obsessed too.
