"I Ate a BMW"

I saw this on a personalized license plate on a car in front of me earlier tonight.

It was on one of those Modernized Mini Coopers that've been around the last few years.

You know, the Minis... that are made by BMW?!

So, obviously, I deemed the guy infront of me to be an idiot.

 

[TheLonelySquire]

So what? Klinger ate a Jeep and Radar mailed one home.

 

[Captain Ice]

Maybe the owner is fully aware of that fact and it's a play on words. That Mini is full of BMW componentry.

In other words, so what?

 

[JonathonWally]

Steve's Vette on 90210 had the plate I8A-4RE, I always liked that.

 

[RoJoHen]

In other words, so what?

SO WHAT?! Trekker was DRIVING and had a thought about another DRIVER!!!

IT MUST BE POSTED!

Did you ever think that he knows this and maybe had the tag as a play on words?

Really? Just maybe?

You know, if Trekker just got a little beaver every once in a while, he could dam that stream of consciousness right up.

And after reading that, the clash of literal and metaphorical imagery in my mind is making my brain squeak...

 

[Robert Maxwell]

Jesus, Trekker, you're really reaching for thread topics these days.

That was my thought too.

The "idea" is, that it's a way of saying "my car is better than the one I "ate."

 

[FordSVT]

The license plate on my 99 Cobra was "FSTRNU". I'll probably never get another personal plate again though.

"She called my vanity license plate 'inscrutable!' 'ICU81MI?' Hilarious!"

 

[John Picard]

In other words, so what?

In other words, another needless gripe by Trekker.

I loved those episodes.

The guy in the Mini Cooper was clearly a Man From Mars™.

Weird, I just found this one a Mini Cooper forum.

So, obviously, I deemed the guy behind me to be an idiot.

Clearly not me since I don't use my phone on the car, my plan doesn't have internet acsess and I couldn't even begin to type on the thing if I did.

I got a treat the other day when I caught a glimpse of a vanity plate that read PSICORP. I usually take a picture when they're that good, but we were in motion, and they turned off on a side street before I got a chance. If I hadn't been headed for an appointment, I'd have stalked them until I got a picture, because it was just so cool!

Here's mine:

When you drive by me to flick me off, I do wave back. I'm a nice guy, really.
