In Perth, Western Australia, a driver’s personalized plate recently made headlines—not because it was proudly bold, but because it was ingeniously subtle. The plate “370HSSV” looked innocuous at first glance. But when flipped upside down, the characters rearranged visually to spell “ahole” (i.e. “asshole”). The twist: it managed to pass the transport authority’s screening process and be legally issued—despite nearly 1,000 plate applications being rejected in a given year for being too offensive or suggestive.
