Someone at the DMV must have been having a bad day

[Mr Hero]

and they were taking it out on our poor customer. When I ask for the license plate info, they write down, GFY ###. I had to keep a straight face, but being that I spend enough time on forums and MMO's, I found that string of letters hilarious.

[smileyeagle1021]

either that or the customer specifically requested it... if my plate wasn't already smlyegl (yes, that's smileyeagle damnit, not smeagle) I'd so ask for GFY ###

[Fenrus]

Heh... Smelly eagle...

I was SO close to getting ####BJ... but they changed it to JF

[smileyeagle1021]

Heh... Smelly eagle...

Fenrus, you're so lucky I actually like you

[Primer]

GFY = Good For You??

[Fenrus]

I'm thinking more Go **** Yourself...

Same here.

I wonder what RetailWorkhorse would use..."Centaur" ?

[AnaKhouri]

I saw one once that said 'YNG JEDI'.

Mine would be better, it would say "JDIMSTR".

My husband wants one that says "SDF-1".

Saw one the other day - a black Continental with the plate "HNST ABE". What I'd really like to see is a Honda minivan with the plate "ILIAD".

I saw a dark-colored SUV in Utah with plates that took me a moment to parse. Utah style is ### ###, though I can't remember where the letters and numbers typically fall in that arrangement.

This SUV had plates that read, in standard Utah format, BLK PRL.

Utah style is ### ###, though I can't remember where the letters and numbers typically fall in that arrangement.

Old style plates are 123 ABC, new style plates are A12 3BC.

Took forever to get used to hearing the new ones. haha

Really old ones are ABC 123. One of my friends has kept his mother's 1973 tag because it is "LSD ###"

My bosses 44' bus is VOYAGER.

I see I'm not the only one who appreciates the classics. For those wondering why this would be an interesting plate, two of the most famous epics from ancient Greece are by Homer, the Iliad (about the Trojan war) and the Odyssey (about Odysseus'/Ulysses' journey home from it, also the name of Honda's minivan).

OT, but I wonder why car makers don't check out what their names mean. The marketing department at Toyota must have been asleep at the switch, because Sienna is an earth pigment that gets its colour from hydrated iron oxide - in other words, rust.
