ICME: I’d Like to Buy a Vowel, Please…

yes-we-can-license

This license spotted in West Hollywood begs a few questions.  If obtained during the heat of an “I love Obama” moment, does the owner now drive around with a tinge of regret, like someone who thought getting a tattoo of the ouroboros permanantly inscribed on her lower backside was a grand idea?  Or, as my friend suggested, is the owner of this car a pastor?  Or did The Little Engine That Could, with a newfound sense of confidence, swap its preferred mode of transportation?  Perhaps the most pressing question is: Who was lucky, or unlucky, enough to get “Yes We Can:” completed vowel version?

    Maybe it predates Obama and the W is a reference to George W.

    The person driving it is actually a witch, and the plate is intended to be read as "Yes, Wiccan."

    If (judging by the make of the car) they’re making 200K/year….then I’d have to say yes.
