It isn’t. OMG however, thanks to Margin Sargent, is an acronym (pronounced “ahm’-gah”).
And why is it Virginians can get hyphens in their vanity plates? *And* use them as an eighth character? We can only get 7 characters and a half-space here, and no custom plates with hyphens.
Standard Virginia license plates are ABC-1234. So a hyphen is allowed as an addition to the seven characters because on a standard message, it’s there.
But the ones in the US are manufactured in Mexico and a few imported from Germany… and this license plate is from the US… so it doesn’t matter whether or not some of them are manufactured in japan.
Thanks, demut. I haven’t been online in years and didn’t know what that meant. I still don’t know what FTW means. I remember the first day I got online was around Valentine’s Day, and everyone was abbreviating, saying, “Happy VD!” And all I could think of was, why are they congratulating everyone on venereal disease. (sigh)
Oh and the word filter still is F*CKING RIDICULOUS! How retarded does one have to be for filtering words like F-U-C-K but still letting people write them with an asterix in it.
Why is it okay to use the word “retarded” as an insult? We have come away from using the “n” word and other slurs. Can we evolve a bit and stop hurting people who are just the way they were born? Honestly…
Retarded is a perfectly reasonable response to someones actions which show mental deficiency.
Idiot means severe mental retardation, is that not worse?
Imbecile also means retard.
So does Moron.
As well as Nincompoop.
Hi, I’m from Belgium…
Could anyone tell me what STFU means then? I’ve been thinking about it for a while now but I really don’t know. PLS stands for please I assume.
I love this website, but clearly my english isn’t that good to understand everything. So who can help me understand the joke?
Tourists driving 35-45 mph on a 60 mph road through Napa Valley on a road so curvy it is impossible to pass. See that thing? It’s called a TURN-OUT. How many vineyards do you have to see before you realize they all kind of look the same?!?!
I’m sure people who live with leaf-peepers this time of year know what I’m talking about!
I know what irritates me a lot more in traffic. Try getting stuck next to one of those people who have a really loud but crappy sound system who insist on making us all listen to their stupid song.
Hey any computer savy peeps on here? I want to make a link to my name on here to my cheeseburger account, to make friends. So that my name is highlighted in blue?
Well, 5 eagles, it’s pretty simple. Firstly, do you see a box that says “Website” in the comments box? It’s just below where you put your email. You put the link to your account in there, and your name will become highlighted in blue, as you say.
if I put a space between the h and the first t and send it leads to the site but goes back with no spaces the next time on the comment time. getting mad……%&)(*^%^&%
Sadly, no – I was not raised in the culture and have only my newspaper subscription to Win Awenen Nisitotung for tribal photos, language lessons, and news of PowWows and gatherings.
Oh well I am getting all my heritage back slowly too girl.

Naa it was not me but did a search on my name and this came up.Before A.D. (After Tour of Duty)name change then.
As they typing goes me has the same problem with a rum and coke LOL.
Pretty amazing that it got past the state censors. All states have huge lists of unapproved plates. Once VA finds out they will undoubtedly demand it back and declare it illegal. Just like the other states do. They seldom have any sense of humor.
I completely agree about the lack of sense of humor shown on the state governments…for that matter in governments in general….I wish that they would just loosen up a little!!!!!!! I wish that everyone could get away with something like that even for only a little while!!!!!!!!!!
Well, at least they said PLS!
So if STFU is an acronym, then what does P.L.S. stand for?
Who says that everything that comes after an acronym, is an acronym?
You haven’t spent too much time at the dark sides of the internet if you don’t see “STFU PLS” as a proper english sentence.
Pretty lame saying that you couldn’t think of anything it might stand for.
Well could you?
Hmm…..
Everyone, STFU PLS.
I know, jam! Why can’t they realize it’s simple to fu*ckin’ understand penguins like sausages??
Strangely, those flaming useless people, lie substantially.
Pfft. Let’s party!
Sounds tempting, for usually potent liquor suffices…

Please. dumbass. wow. how could u not know tht?
PLS stands for please
Indeed.
I saw the twin of this plate in NH a while back.

There’ll be nobody complaining from the back of the line
should there be “PLZ”?
Maybe that tag was already taken.
He’d have said “THX” but then [GM]Dave would feed him to a dragon.
I wouldn’t eat him, Dragon.
Probably all tough and gamey.
could still bbq him!
Being polite is so important when you are cussing out somebody via abbreviations.
Did ChiaObama send you?
How very polite of them…
Only in America.
Made in Japan.
Technically, VW is a German car…
Yes, but their cars are also manufactured in Japan. Honda and Toyota are Japanese but they have factories in the UK.
But the ones in the US are manufactured in Mexico and a few imported from Germany… and this license plate is from the US… so it doesn’t matter whether or not some of them are manufactured in japan.
xD
woot! In the top 10 xD
Shut the f*ck up please.

Calm down dear, it’s only a website! 0.o
Some people just don’t find something more relevant to be stressed about…

Yeah, strong, and encourage me to let out a “whoop!”
No wonder you have so many croupies on Failblog!

Giving the middle finger to people behind you while driving.
Sitting through an entire green light because you’re putting on mascara, then speeding off just as the light turns red.
Doing 45mph in the left lane because it is the legal highway minimum speed.

Hello all Failblog regulars.
*squeezes*
I know what irritates me a lot more in traffic. Try getting stuck next to one of those people who have a really loud but crappy sound system who insist on making us all listen to their stupid song.
Sorry meant to reply to fluffy up above.
The sad thing is that the sound system wasn’t crappy before the current owner decided to crank the volume.

I tried that but it leads me to the wrong account. To account 5″s not 5 eagles?
I don’t understand what you mean. Did you copy and paste the web address of your account into the website box?
And when I do my comments don’t show up
This one did…
This one did.
but when I leave a space between the t”s it does
T’s? What t’s?
http:/ part
God, that’s a boring website.
I could only bear to look at part of it.
Ugh, that was the worst part!
With the correct changes, one could eventually become partial to it.
I dunno, I find actual content to be part and parcel of a website.
Though if it stays as dull, that website and I will have to part ways.
You mean…you won’t participate anymore??
I refuse to be party to this partisan website.
I refuse to believe you don’t party
if I put a space between the h and the first t and send it leads to the site but goes back with no spaces the next time on the comment time. getting mad……%&)(*^%^&%
try this with the space between the ‘h’and the first ‘t’.
I was able to click into your profile page – how interesting that my family is also Ojibwa (mainly in Sault Saint Marie although I am a Florida girl)
Aanni ChiaPet . Do you know you language? Your family would of been from the council of the three fires probably Chippawa.

wow the only thing i dont like about this plate is that it isnt mine
Holy $#!+ this passed Virginia’s super-strict laws regarding this? Yay!
Altho they did put PCA SHT on an old clunker once…
I am not sure, but i think that car is in my area. It parks at the local apartment complex my friends used to live at.
I invented that car.
And I’ll bet your grandfather is in the basement pulling pranks, too.
He brings all the dogs to yard.
Well, he did retire over six hundred years ago, and knows a rubber fake license plate is the oldest trick in the book.
Older than fetch… or prostitution?
LMAO
everyone behind this guy’s car gets instant ownage
I hope I’m not behind him then, I vowed never to own another Jetta.
Ok, call me ignorant, but what does STFU-PLS stands for?.
see above.
see uinder there?
Dear Failblog,
Your new post titles are not funny. Whoever instituted the new titling schemata is too influenced by Family Circus or Marmaduke.
Dear Avon
Thanks you for your imput but at this time we don’t need sh!t for brains
comments. LOL (kidding)
Cool plate on a shitty car.
Classic. Not only an acronym but a nice one too!
Abbreviation, technically, not acronym (which is an abbreviation that is also used as a word, like LASER).
Getting my coat.
Jetta outside a late 80″ early 90’s home.
Seems like there’s a troll on fire, if you look at the recent comments.
Good evening BSR did you like my comment on coke fail LOL It was a paper I wrote long time ago.
I have to admit I didn’t actually read it. Sorry! :laugh:
Oops, :laugh:, and good evening as well!
Darn, I’m doing something wrong…
Naa it was not me but did a search on my name and this came up.Before A.D. (After Tour of Duty)name change then.
As they typing goes me has the same problem with a rum and coke LOL.
I guess I’m a bit tired. Awfully quiet here, but then again it’s Saturday.
Love it! Makes me want a plate that says “kthxbye”!
What’s the first half mean??? I’m confused. :/
“S[hut] t[he] F[uck] U[p]”
hot plate ;]
It means, S h u t T h e F u c k U p – Please
So much for “Virginia Is for Lovers”.
Pretty amazing that it got past the state censors. All states have huge lists of unapproved plates. Once VA finds out they will undoubtedly demand it back and declare it illegal. Just like the other states do. They seldom have any sense of humor.

LOL that’s my friends old plate.
Hilarious, that guy must cause tons of accidents. Road rage much?? It reminds me of this post from this blog I just read about insurance: http://lawblog.legalmatch.com/2009/09/25/uninsured-car-accidents-can-cost-you-big-time/
Wow, that’s even worse than:
“WTF 666″
There are two ways of looking at this: STFU, please, or Strife University Plus.
I saw this on the road!! In Pennsylvania.
I’ve SEEN this car before! AHAHAAHA! It was on the corner of Azalea and Little Creek in Norfolk pulling into an apartment complex. ROFL.
