beanryboy, did you have to explain what the plate means on your application? I had to write out, "I wave back."

No, I did it online, took three weeks to get it. It said that they have to approve all tags, so my assumption is it passed. I mean, is it really offensive to anyone?

Someone may be offended by using the term, "sucks."

Yeah, maybe I guess. It's so part of our normal venacular, though. Much more acceptable and not as offensive as it used to be....

True. When I was a kid, it was just becoming popular, and I got in trouble a few times at home for saying it. Now, my mom and dad say it too! I think it took them a little while to accept that it's not a "four-letter word."

It's never a 4-letter word. It's either 3 or 5 letters.

I can say with high confidence - when someone complains (and in this, the hayseed bible belt home where I grew up, someone WILL) the DMV will side with the one complainer vs. the zillions of us who vote "NOT offensive".... If one little 80 year old great-grandma doesn't like it, the state is on her side.

Unfortunaletly that is the way it is Blimey. That is why I try and offend those kinda people all the time with my music, Art and all that good stuff. And Jason as sad as it makes me feel to say this I frequent Starbucks, I absolutely hate the place but it is the only place I know of in Monroe. You got any places in that area

I found one in Monroe. Here is the info:http://www.downtownmonroenc.org/info...php?news_id=25You can always check for local coffeeshops in your area by going to: http://www.delocator.net/
And again, I am not trying to offend anyone, just sharing my feelings through the means of expression. I just thought it was a hilarious tag!

Maybe. Have you tried Leapin' Lizards Espresso? They are in your area, and have great coffee. Also Bushiban Coffee is a good one....
