Personally, I think that if you cannot get the vanity plate that you want, you should just give up.\u00a0 But unfortunately not everyone would agree with my opinion, and when the going gets tough, the tough start seeking out substitutes.\u00a0 Most often times it involves replacing letters with numbers, and at that point, you may as well be trying to get the screen name you really want on AOL or any MMO game.\u00a0 After all, without the linguistically tenacious, the world would have been denied such clever tags such as \u201cL3GOLAS\u201d and \u201c5KELETOR.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n This morning I saw a car that whipped out in front of me haphazardly that had a vanity plate that read \u201cBL355D.\u201d\u00a0 It took me a long longer than it probably should have to decipher it, because initially I saw the \u201cBL\u201d and I figured it was just another poorly veiled black-power vanity plate that passes through the ironic double-standard of what\u2019s allowed in the state of Georgia.\u00a0 But then it finally dawned on me that it was a variant of the word \u201cBLESSED.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Oh, another \u201cI\u2019M RELIGIOUS PRAISE THE LORD\u201d plate, I get it now.\u00a0 Religious themed plates are probably the second-most frequently seen vanity plates I see on the roads which are often ironic (or is it?) consider the people driving these cars are often times the most despicable drivers I ever witness.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n But anyway, I got to thinking \u2013 just how much failure did the driver of BL355D have to endure before they finally managed to squeeze through the window with \u201cBL355D?\u201d\u00a0 There are two possibilities in this instance \u2013 absolutely every single capable instance of \u201cBLESSED\u201d was taken, resulting in this driver having to swallow his linguistic standards and omit one of the E\u2019s, and go back to the drawing board; which by the way are a lot:<\/span><\/p>\n BLESSED<\/span> And there are probably a few more than\u00a0that<\/em>, even before we I have to start pulling out an E from either side.\u00a0 Regardless, there is still a possibility, given the sheer number of Jesus-fearing fake-pious religious zealots there are in Georgia, that all of these could very well be taken.<\/span><\/p>\n Imagine how much it had to have sucked to have been trying to get this vanity plate?\u00a0 If they did it online, they had to keep typing in a different variant, until it finally came back with a green light that it was available.\u00a0 But imagine if they weren\u2019t trying online, but at the actual tag office?\u00a0 Sitting at a desk with some miserable government schlub, having\u00a0them<\/em>\u00a0pecking in random variants of BLESSED until finally BL355D was acceptable.\u00a0 And it could have been even worse if the driver had applied in the old fashioned pen and paper applications, and actually wrote with their own hand \u201cBL355D.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Or, we have the second possibility, that the driver of BL355D is just a fucking idiot.<\/span><\/p>\n I think we\u2019re going to have to assume the latter here.<\/span><\/p>\n Amen.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Personally, I think that if you cannot get the vanity plate that you want, you should just give up.\u00a0 But unfortunately not everyone would agree with my opinion, and when the going gets tough, the tough start seeking out substitutes.\u00a0 Most often times it involves replacing letters with numbers, and at that point, you may … Continue reading Vanity plate futility lols<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[51,45,15],"class_list":["post-36232","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-cars","tag-fail","tag-og"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36232","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=36232"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36232\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36234,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36232\/revisions\/36234"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=36232"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=36232"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=36232"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
