There is no word for this but I shall make one up.

It shall "memetasticize".

And for that startlingly brilliant contribution to our lexicon...
   ...you shall be can'onized. 


Also, Pedro saw a license plate yesterday (on a vehicle parked outside his office, of all places) that read 2GRLS1CP. 

Why?

I thought the car I see frequently with "SUDO" was geeky, but damn.

The SOs parents recently moved to South Carolina and both ended up with plates that say ###-WTF, which is pretty neat.

Also, I demand a PLEASE, DO NOT MENTION THAT HERE version of 2 girls 1 cup.

I saw a picture of a car with Virginia plates that read BUKKAKE.  Now that's making a statement about yourself.

HAAAAA!!! OMG, how on earth did they get that through the DMV? That's bloody hilarious. I wonder if the DMV can retroactively cancel a vanity plate?? You know that some kid out there has "GOATSE" or something.

They can. In the mid-90's it was on the news that two women had plates that said LESBIAN and the DMV recalled them. The women protested that they were approved and had been on their car for months. But the DMV had gotten complaints from people that were "offended" and said the approval was an oversight, &c, &c.

I clicked thinking "Oprah, this is going to be boring."  Boy was I wrong.

Memetasticize, that's brilliant.

Smash Lab, I think?

In my head, I can't picture it as being anything other than "Dumber Mythbusters" but I'm pretty sure it's Smash Lab.

Whether they're smashing a yellow lab or a chocolate lab or a meth lab, though, I'm not sure.

Here's hoping "meth lab", certainly.

One of the students here got Stugotz as his license plate. I am totally jealous. Its the name of tony soprano's boat and translates basically as "This Cock"

But the DMV had gotten complaints from people that were "offended" and said the approval was an oversight, &c, &c.

To be fair, the plate in question said "2 DYKES," which, although they meant it in a fun, positive way, could rub some a bit badly.

Virginia's not good about pre-screening the vanity plates. They let a guy have a plate that said "ZYKLON B" on it (Zyklon B being the gas the Nazis used to kill Jews during the Holocaust) until someone noticed and complained. The man that owned the plates was a Holocaust denier who had served time for racially motivated crimes before.

Both are mentioned here.

Libertarianhaus says let people get whatever they want. If you want to get something racist and asinine as a plate, go for it. But don't go whining when someone slashes your tires and bashes your windshield in. I knew a guy (also in Virginia, natch) who had a plate that said "H8 GZUS." I asked if it ever frightened him what people would do in retribution. His response: "I hope someone trashes my car. I hate this piece of shit, and I could use the insurance to get a better one."

Damn. And I was too nervous to ever even put on my "You lost, get over it" sticker with the crossed out confederate flag on it.

I put a "Militant Agnostic: I don't know and you don't either" bumper sticker on my car a week before the wedding of my high school best friend. She was marrying a Greek dude in the Greek Orthodox church. I parked that sumbitch way the hell out there. I don't need no three hundred Greeks getting pissed off at me.

My favorite thing was always that the guys with Confederate Flag t-shirts, bumper stickers, etc. were the guys who told me that I must hate america and love terrorists.

Yeah, despite my Pat-like love of bumper stickers, the only ones I've ever had the stones to put on my car are (currently) Fire/EMS decals. I opted against getting Italian Heritage license plates because I didn't want pissed off AIM Activists thinking that I support the retarded Columbus Day Parade debacle. I don't want to make my car a target for some asshole with a political agenda. However, seeing some of the heinous, assholish antiabortion bumper stickers has certainly made me rethink my position.

Recently my childhood friend came home from Iraq and I got a call that people were meeting up with him for some drinks. I was halfway to my car when I realized I was wearing my "I liked you better before you sold out" t-shirt and realized it might appear to be in bad taste.

I've always wanted a "Your god sucks" sticker but I know I'd never have the stones to use it.
