Seems the state government of North Carolina (the fair state in which I reside) has apparently just now become aware of two recent phenomenons, “the Internet” and “text messaging”.  Some old lady’s granddaughter informed her what the “WTF” on her new license plate might mean, had it been written on a MySpace page or preceded by “OMG” in a text message, so she complained. Once realizing their SNAFU (oops!) they’ve agreed to give free replacements to anyone who received these tags. They were also using a picture of a “WTF” tag as the demo plate on the DMV’s website, which is being changed.

OK, taking down the picture on the website, I might can understand, but replacing the plates.  What if I’ve got SOL? Or POS? Or NRB? Where does the insanity stop?!  One other question: can I have one of the returned plates?
