WTF, plate?

Nearly 10,000 people in North Carolina could have a free license plate coming to them if they so choose.

The Department of Motor Vehicles there has notified drivers with plates beginning with the letters "WTF" that they can trade in their "offensive" plates free of charge.

"Officials learned last year the common acronym stands for a vulgar phrase in e-mail and cell phone text messages." - WXII12.com

DMV officials discovered the meaning of the acronym last July when a 60-year-old technology teacher complained after her teenage grandchildren clued her in. The agency also recently realized that the sample plate on its Web site bore the WTF prefix as well, haaaa.

Personally, I would love if there were my license plate...as I'm sure anyone with a sense of humor would.

And just for fun and shoutout to my college days, "WTF, mate?"
