Lame license plate update:

I was driving to work this morning behind a gorgeous gunmetal grey Corvette that had, quite ruining its mystique, a license plate saying "MIT GRAD". Tacky tacky tacky.

The only thing worse than having your or your car's name* on your license plate (or, horror of horrors, both--"DAVES 911") is bragging about yourself on your plates.

*You can get away with this if you are clever, however. I once saw a bright yellow Mustang with the plate "B STANG".
