Vanity Plates

Here at TCM, we have developed a great disdain for vanity plates. Don’t judge us because so have you. You see them on the road everyday like we do and think “what type of douchebag actually requests ‘BIGP1MPN’ when they’re 130lbs. and look like McLovin?”

Thank god for TCM because now you have an outlet to let your frustrations be heard about the douchebaggery that uses vanity plates.

One of our loyal readers gave us the inspiration for this post when he saw the “I INVEST” on the road this week. Who would go to the DMV to actually have this put on their car? It’s like someone requesting “I FART,” “I WCKOFF,” “I GT DRNK” or the famous “I JST POOD.” Now what would’ve been awesome is if they put down, “I BTR TN U” because that’s essentially what they are trying to say which begs another question – why do they have to put it on their vanity plate? Must be some low self esteem. Too bad our reader couldn’t tell us if the car was a Mercedes Benz or a Dodge Aries. Our guess is that its the latter of the two.

Attention TCM readers! If you see a wacky or crazy vanity plate on the road that needs to addressed on TCM, bring it to our attention! Send us a note with the vanity plate (doable), the model of the car (optional), a picture (would be amazing), and we’ll post it! There are plenty of douchebag vanity plates out there so make sure you’re on the look out for:

Keep your eyes peeled for some real winners and the Captain’s will give you your 15 minutes of fame or a plate of nachos – whatever one you like better.
