My license plate of 0X800080 was denied by the New York DMV. The reason they gave was:
The plate configuration may be confusing or objectionable to Law Enforcement. No substitution of the number “0″ the letter “O” is permitted on any style plate. On the blue banner “picture” plate, the number “1″ cannot be substituted for the letter “I”.
Boo! My current license plate is more confusing! How is this confusing???
So now I must continue my quest to find the perfect license plate. Any suggestions?

OK, I’ll bite, what the hell is this license plate supposed to mean any way?
Is it a intranerd thing?
Oh, and how’s fatherhood?

The license plate means “purple” in hex code, commonly used on websites. “0X” signifies hex and what follows is the red, green and blue values. For 800080, add together: 80 red, 00 green, and 80 blue. Red and blue make purple.
Baby pictures are on the way.
