Custom Plates

I love my car. It’s a Nissan Juke and it’s basically my Baby Bear. Not too big, not too small … juuuuuuust right.

And it’s fantastic in the snow.

Recently, I found that the additional cost of custom plates is pretty minimal if you combine it with your normal yearly registration.

So now? Now I am tempted to get custom plates.

But what to get?

We’ve been calling the Juke “Earl” because he’s classy, smooth, sexy, and a lovely dark gray/blue color. Earl gray. Hot.

So I could go with some variation of “Earl” or “Earl Gray”.

BUT.

But I could also go with “Jukebox” or just “Box” (hoping for people to make the connection. I almost wanted a Veloster just to get “Raptor” plates).

BUT BUT.

I could go one step further. (Into insanity, if you ask my husband, but obviously I’m not asking him)

I could get “BAWKS”.

Which, phonetically? Is like “Box”, but it’s ALSO like the sound chickens make (bawk bawk) and then my car becomes “the chicken coupe.” (get it? Like “coop”, only it’s a car, so it’s “coupe”.)

And I drive very defensively (read: I hate driving and it mostly terrifies me to be in traffic with other, angry people). So the “chicken” part actually fits.

“Earl, the Juke bawks chicken coupe.”

I need some backup here. Awesome? Or so far off the beaten path that I won’t be able to find my way back, even with a breadcrumb trail? (PUN INTENDED)
