Running Item: The Butt of Jokes (and Cars)

Cars have not yet been outlawed in the District, although driving will probably be officially re-classified soon as one of the new bad behaviors, like consuming transfats or buying non-conflict-free diamonds. So the folks at the D.C. DMV had better pick a new license plate motto fast, perhaps from the selection below, before they all lose their jobs. (Not even the stimulus will save them!)

"I've Tried Driving This Car on Metro Rails But It Doesn't Work."

"Repeat After Me: All Taxes are Fungible, All Taxes are Fungible..."

"Because Thefts from Autos are the District's Crime of Choice."

"Powered By Ethanol. And After That Doesn't Work, Wood Alcohol."

"Not a Vanity Tag. No More Self-Expression on Cars, Please."
