. . . So I figured out what KYG1RL must have meant, but for the life of me, I can't figure out why someone would pick that particular plate. Because, uh, that really isn't what it looks like.
@ander217 Maybe this works for you, but it's not a good idea if you're using condoms, and will increase your risk of infections. Oils in general are not a good idea. They compromise the latex in condoms and are good at messing with your pH balance and keeping bacteria exactly where you don't want them
Because not everyone's mind revolves around sex? And KY as an abbreviation for the state has existed a lot longer than the product (which many people may have never even heard of, btw).
Your brain has been shaped by millions of years of evolution to want a very small set of things. Sex is one of them. literally everyone's brain revolves around sex. Don't act all high and mighty because you didn't think about the sexual answer.
Maybe they're not "high and mighty". Maybe it's just that your mind is in the gutter. Obviously it's true for you, but not everybody's life revolves around sex.
Captain Slow is a thing (from Top Gear, as said above), and the letters spell out that pronunciation, not the given answer. And why would the plate not have an 'O' there anyway?
Yea pretty sure It is captain slow, I will stand corrected if there is a source where the owner actually states that he does mean solo (not a website that says so). But it isnt the obvious choice. slo is more logical slow than solo, actualy slo for solo is not logical at all. (I know these plates arent the epitome of logic, but usually the letters that are left out can be missed and the word still sound nearly the same.
(And this is besides the point that it is more logical to put on a car, like if there was speed monster it would be more logical it was about velocity than the drugs)
I remember those days when gas wars frequently knocked the price down to 19 cents per gallon from the normal 30 or 40 cents. Who cared that our cars only averaged 10 mpg in those days?
CPTNSLO should only be Captain Slow. There really is no other appropriate answer. SLO will always be the shorter version of slow, and will never be interpreted as anything else. Not to mention in the context of liscense plates, it makes much more sense.
These (and those on the other quiz of this name) are culled from a number of sites; too many to list. I would suggest that you Google terms like "vanity plates", "funny license plates", "clever license plates", etc. and look for the sites with actual photos of these plates on cars. Don't forget to look at "images" as well as url's. All of these are real plates -- not made up, and if memory serves me correctly they are all American plates.
There was a contest amongst my friends to come up with a clever vanity plate to put on my first Viper when I got it back in 2003. Three times in a row the plates came from the DMV spelled incorrectly and I would send them back. After the last time I gave up and just went with regular plates. By then I had decided that I'd be a little too embarrassed driving around with what my friends had thought up, anyway.
I wasn't questioning that these are real, I just wondered who decided what they actually meant - such as Captain Solo versus Captain Slow, etc. Love the quiz, BTW.
For the CPTN SLO, I didn't find any sites listing it as Captain Solo but a bunch listing it as Captain Slow: http://horriblelicenseplates.blogspot.com/2009/06/he-who-laughs-last-thinks-slowest.html, http://www.9thgencivic.com/forum/coupe/9044-about-customized-license-plate-2-print.html, http://forums.fourtitude.com/showthread.php?4945932-I-take-pics-of-funny-license-plates/page33 (see the commenter who responded to the "CPT SLO" license plate). In other words, I too vote that CPTN SLO should be Captain Slow.
Can't speak for "Yellow fever" or "Exposure," though I'm sure they had their reasons, but I could definitely see some sort of medical professional choosing "Inoculate." Because seriously, if your kids CAN be vaccinated, they SHOULD be vaccinated.
Yolo isn't a word it's an abbreviation. You only live once fever makes no sense and neither does Yellow forever. Wanting it to fit your mistakes doesn't make you smarter...
Nahhh I refuse to believe it's Captain Solo rather than Captain Slow, James May' nicknames in the world of cars. Who even is Captain Solo? Google search comes up with some random Zambian army captain.
But fun quiz! I really like these. It's a good brain work out, if you don't accidentally break your brain doing it.
(And this is besides the point that it is more logical to put on a car, like if there was speed monster it would be more logical it was about velocity than the drugs)
Wish I still had that car, but damn, gas is expensive when you get 4mpg.
Also maybe accept forever as well as fever?
