British Columbia’s personalized license plates rejection list has been revealed and it’s a doozy. Among the 82 rejected applications are some real gems, including some that make you wonder why someone even bothered submitting them in the first place. The list includes everything from sexually suggestive phrases to abusive language – so basically, it’s your typical list of license plate applications in North America.
Plates such as “MYXWIFE” and “MYXWIF2” were thankfully deemed unsuitable. I mean, who would even want to advertise that their wife is nothing more than a possession, right? We can only hope that the rejected applicant has met his most recent wife on an equally suitable platform like Tinder.
Another rejected plate was “TITFAN”, which apparently doesn’t need much explaining. It’s clear this driver has an appreciation for the female anatomy and would like to advertise it to everyone on the road. Because who doesn’t appreciate a good pair of… headlights?
One plate that really rang true to the spirit of British Columbia was “NOOPIE”. What better way to show love and respect for our environment than by putting a slang term for sexual intercourse right on our license plates? Good call, individual who submitted this one.
But, it’s not all just sexually suggestive phrases on this list. We also have some classic examples of abusive language such as “LUV2H8U” and “FHRITP”, which we will refrain from explaining – just in case there are any minors reading this article.
Perhaps the most amusing rejected plates were those that showed a complete lack of creativity. In this category, we have “1234567” and “ABCDEFG”. It’s almost impressive how much thought these applicants put into their submissions, but thankfully, the decision-making officials were able to see through their clever disguise.
Other rejected plates that deserve an honorable mention include “DTF” (which stands for down to… floss, obviously), “JUNKY” (not sure what the intended meaning was here), and “KILLER” (because nothing screams harmless quite like the word killer on a license plate).
It goes to show that people’s creativity truly knows no bounds. I have faith that these individuals will continue to put their artistic talents to good use in other areas such as writing charming notes to their significant others or making hilarious memes.
I mean, who are these people that think such offensive and inappropriate things are suitable for public display? It’s hard to believe that these were actual submissions from real people and not just a joke cooked up by a couple of middle-school boys. But, I guess we do live in a society where inappropriate and offensive language has become normalized – thanks, social media.
Regardless, it’s reassuring to know that British Columbia takes its personalized license plates seriously and is committed to maintaining some semblance of decency on our roads. So, let’s raise a glass to the officials responsible for rejecting these applications and keeping our roads slightly more civilized.
