my 64 best vanity plate photos

In no particular order.

All of these (except for 2 of them) were taken in Los Angeles.

A few more and I will have enough to make it 81. I think all I have to do is spend 5 minutes in the Westside Pavilion parking structure.

    Only a few of my friends have used doulas, but the ones who did were without exception completely bonkers throughout their pregnancies. I blame the hormones. I suppose I should mention one is an endocrinologist.

    These people just let you shoot their plates??

  15. Malingering (41 months ago | reply)

    Oddly, those plates were out in public and seen by hundreds, if not thousands of people per day.

  16. Tequila&Donuts (41 months ago | reply)

    Isn't the whole point of a vanity plate that people will see the plate and remember it? I think you're doing a service for these people - promoting their vanity.

  17. wskrz (41 months ago | reply)

    It's amazing what you can do when people aren't standing next to their cars all day.

    Great. Next thing you know, license plates are going to be complaining that they don't have any privacy.
