Obviously this was probably intended in the sexual way, but it could also have a different meaning that isn't related to sex, for all anyone who passes it knows. It's entirely down to how the person interprets it, and if someone interprets it in the sexual way and then becomes offended, I believe that is their own fault and they should deal with it. As others have pointed out, some people need to just accept that they're offended, if they become offended so easily by petty things that most of us don't find offensive. Some of the things that people become offended by are ridiculous, in my opinion. As you can tell, I have no sympathy for these people, especially those who are offended by sexual things :p

Usually, when I come across someone pathetic enough to take offence at things like this, I usually go out my way to deliberately offend them even more. It's worth HOURS of free entertainment! ;)

That's why I said I don't mind it, and find it funny. :p

Then again one of the teams I worked on left me with an even more warped sense of humor than I had before. ;)

Didn't the guy himself say it was not meant to be taken in a sexual context. That it was about an experience in vegas. Well what does numbers and vegas have in common... Casino games, Roulette or craps, etc.

Well, I'm not that gullible. He can claim that to get it back, but we all know what he means.

Just a side note here:

It costs $251+ for personalized plates here. I have one (well 2. One in front and one in back.) and you're damn right you'd find me fighting for it if they decided after many moons that it was no longer "acceptable". In fact, I'd fight for a full refund and probably interest for each month they allowed me to continue using it ;)

What would you say if it was actually just about an experience in a casino? That it was about an experience in a Casino. Of course people are going to think it has to do with the more interesting alternative. Coincidences do happen.

coincidences does. however IB6UB9 has nothing do to with coincidences. it's a good excuse to use to get his plate back, but it's pretty darn gullible to actually believe it.

You are obviously missing my point.. But believe what you want.

      This is about the already discredited 2025 announcement. Not the current one, which I've heard nothing negative about in the academic literature.
