So I was driving home today and I got behind a BMW Z3.

Those are not all that rare around here, especially if you consider how many I used to see in the Dell parking lot where the sales people parked. But I digress. This Z3 had a vanity license plate from out of state that said FLUFBUT. As I wondered what the Hell flufbut means, and why you’d want it as your license plate, my eyes wandered up to convertible top. Along the bottom of the plastic window was duct tape. Not just a strip, but what looked like three layers. As my eye wandered up to the red light to see if it was green I noticed that on the window part there were 2 strips of what appeared to be clear packing tape. What struck me about this was that here was a car that cost quite a bit, with a baffling vanity plate, but a vanity plate nonetheless which indicated money, yet it had a decidedly broke-ass fix on the window. I was half tempted to follow them to wherever they were going and ask the driver “What the hell does FLUFBUT mean?”
