This is by far the worst "plate" I have seen around Calgary.
"BOYDEN1"
Did someone take "BOY DEN" already? Seriously... WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU thinking putting that on a liecence plate? The first thing people (well me) think of is "are you a damned pedophile"?

Nope... just you. Perhaps you need counselling. :P

Boyden couldn't be the person's last name? Agreed, if its meant as "Boy Den", and the driver is over 20, then you've got a problem

If my last name was Boyden, I would probably change it.
Lets be honest and think before we put our "names" on our plates if we do that.
If your last name was Butkiss would you put that on a set of plates?

I would just assume it is the person's last name and it is their first vehicle or something.

I saw a BC plate on a BMW that said "RICH".
That person is just inviting vandalism to their vehicle.

I can't think of any bad ones but a couple good ones are PB FT and ICANKU. The second one I haven't seen, but I read about it in some baseball article.

Not the worst plate ever, but when I was in Florida 3 years ago I saw a plate that had
"I M E Z"
I hope it was a chick driving the car.

I saw this idiot yesterday at Chinook mall, his plate was something like 2QK4U, like too quick for you, or something along those lines. The worst thing was that he was driving a 1992 or so Dodge Duster. A nasty green colour with stickers from modding companies. I just laughed and laughed. So ugly.

I never saw this plate myself but somebody told me he saw the letter 'Q' represented as a binary number. Most likely representing the character from Star Trek TNG. Can you be a bigger nerd? Or am I a nerd for knowing that?

Some of the letters featured on The Smoking Gun that people wrote to complain about license plates are just plain sad.
People are way too sensitive.
How lame is it that someone gets offended by the plate that reads FRNIK8 ?
"You can't say "fornicate!" That means sex! We're way too uptight to even think that people do that!"

Last night I saw one that said WAZZUP - wow, that person is only 5 years behind...
Other bad plates I've seen: on a NSX and the plate was NSXXX, and a S2000 had the plate S2000 - seriously, what kind of ###### has to get his plate to tell us what kind of car it is??

I thought that was hilarious. Everyone knows sex is dirty, and should never, ever be out in the open - even if it's a synonym. That's just plain wrong dangit.
One that I found funny was someone reporting "UZI4U" because it's violent, gun reference, etc. Fair enough. Apparently the owner got a letter saying the plate's being recalled. He comes back with a letter accusing the person/the DMV of anti-semitism because UZI is a Jewish word. Nothing funny about anti-semitism or gun violence, but the exchange was for some reason.

Off topic, but as we are talking about running people off the road... I want to run those Mothers in their SUVs who have "Baby on Board" on their rear windshields.
LIKE GOOD JOB! (Always reminds me of the Simpsons when Marge says "oooo I got this baby on board sign, now people will stop intentionally ramming our car".)
