I hate hate hate vanity plates and the people who own them. They are stupid (the people and the plates). I don't know a single person with a vanity plate that isn't 1) an asshole 2) insecure or 3) annoying as shit.
My friend got upset when I told her how much I hate people who have vanity plates and started explaing to me that they are not really bad b/c she had one when she was a teenager and it had her pets' names on it! awwwww. That didn't make me hate vanity plate owners any less, but I lost almost all respect for my friend. Seriously, what the hell does a person need to communicate on license plate? What is so godawful important that you are willing to pay money to tell every random driver on the street about? If you're advertising your business, whatever, it's still stupid but at least there's kind of a point. But why does someone who drives a "68 Volkswagon need a license plate that says "MY 68 BUG"?. Jesus Christ.
So, how many people on this board did I just call stupid?

Agree. I note I had a pretty big rant on Joe from Real World Miami last night, but I'll go along with your rant.
Funny vanity plate story - I've always hated them (my dad hated them [along with bumper stickers] during a crucial formative period for me I guess). My ex-husband went and bought vanity plates that said "LV [NCS]". I hated them. Might have even been the first nail in the coffin for the marriage. Turns out to be a dealkiller. Even if the message is nice to me.
He was not an asshole or annoying as hell, but was pretty insecure.
