So we were on the way to Fry's to buy shit, and Prole points out that the truck in front of us has a license plate with the name of the EAGLE from Lord of the Rings on it. We were going down the highway, so we were going kinda fast, and there was traffic, but I managed to get some clean shots. I had to use digital zoom, which made things kinda grainy, but I cleaned it up.

Note that Prole was the only one who recognized the name on the plate, making him the King of the Nerds, aside from the person that actually requested the plate.
How does someone end up getting such an obscure character name as their license plate? I mean, if I were going down my list of vanity plate choices, and I were so far down on the list that I was looking at the names of obscure LOTR characters, I'd probably give up and tell them to give me the usual alphabet soup.

hahahahaha
fuck that, that guy is awesome

That's insane.

That's insanely awesome.

That guy is the nerd I wish to be. Shameless!
He even drives an F-150 like me!

Wow, Prole is a supernerd.
Nice pic, btw. Was this taken with your new camera?
-
I got the reference. :(
I did. But I'm a huge LOTR taco.

No, that was with my Canon A710, which is like a higher end point and shoot with a lot of features. That's at 24x zoom, by the way, which is why it's grainy. We were on the highway, so I kinda just had to go with the first camera I could pull out of my coat.
-
That god I didn't get the reference. I still might be cool some day
-
Gwaihir is the lord of the great eagles in LOTR. Now you'll never be cool.
Why did you remember such a weird, minuscule detail?
-
God damn, I've read all the books at least 3 times and wouldn't have caught that. :lol
Poor Prole, to have a mind that is cursed in such a way. It must be torturous for him.

Is this Mrs Cohen?

It wasn't like he had to struggle to remember it either. It was like it was natural. "Hey, that truck in front of us has the name of that eagle that helped Gandalf" or something like that.

Sounds like the guy is a furry or some redneck patriot.

THE EAGLES ARE COMING THE EAGLES ARE COMING :supergay

I bet he has millions of voyeuristic pictures of everyone he knows hidden in some secret room.
-
Prole and I suck at camera, someone has to be the camera guy
-
I'm I the only one a little scared that whiteman always had a camera with him?
I have a big coat. I usually have my two point and shoots with me because they have different specialties.
-
He doesn't just have a camera, he has TWO and wears a big coat to conceal them!
What else does he hide inside this little universe inside his coat?

I used to go to Applebee's for karaoke most Wednesday nights. The guy who did the karaoke had one of those big vans for his equipment. This is his license plate:
