KTPA

California is the home of the vanity license plate.
I roll my eyes so many times while on the road that I get a headache because to me, a vanity plate screams "I'm a douche".
Typically, the plates spell out something that, after breaking out your Nancy Drew Decoder, you can read like "HOTMN1" is "hot man 1" (douche)
or SSYGRL is "sassy girl" (also a douche)
Today I came across a new breed of vanity plate which I will dub "the inside joke they want to share with EVERYBODY" or "Choice 1 was taken so I have to explain myself".
The plate said "KTPA" and I read it at first and thought "ok, that's better, at least they aren't telling other drivers how attractive they are or how sassy they are, it's an inside thing...fair enough"
THEN, I noticed they had taken a label maker and stuck the spelled out version AROUND the license plate
"Keeping The
Party Alive".
Wow.
Thank you sir, because I was worried that the party was dying and I felt an immediate sense of comfort knowing that it's still going on and that you, sir, in the mini van, are keeping it alive for the rest of us. Also, thank you for putting it on your license plate with the explanation because I had interpreted it as "Kevin Took Paste Away" and that didn't bring me as much happiness as knowing the party is still rockin'.
