Computer geeks and their cars

Today had to be a record for me. Driving home from work today reminded me more of a car show meets geek convention than I've ever seen. Had a beautiful RX7 pull up next to meet with the licence plate "IMROOT" On the rear window were two bumper stickers that read "My network will beat up your network" and "Hey Windows! Linux p0wnz joo!"

Someone else was driving around in a beautiful royal blue beamer with the licence plate "nwadmin" Another person had the licence plate "ph33rme" and the guy next to him had "suxbnjo" with a sticker in his rear window that sayd "Bow to me for I am root!". Man, I'm happy with a typical licence plate and no stickers on my car, and these guys were just totally flaunting it. The part that was funniest was when I saw the guy driving the beamer pull over and whip out a wi-fi antenna next to a starbucks and start leaching off their network. 🙂

Anyone else seen crazy stuff like this?

but my friend has a 2002 subaru wrx wagon w/ a bumper sticker that says "You just got beat by a wagon" 🙂
