Pretty clear that those people must have peaked in college. It's a sad statement to spend your whole life defining yourself by where you spent just four years. Get on with your fucking lives people.

That's Miami of Ohio, not Florida, I recognize the plates. Pretty sure it's a Top 100 university in the U.S.

Also, hey, if that kid busted their ass, good for them. If you've got the means, why not spoil your kids a bit?

Isn't a Top 100 college like claiming you're a Top 48 state? I mean, I know there are a few more, but not that many.

Miami University. Is that like Univeristy of Phoenix? Sorry not impressed. People that brag have issues and major insecurities. Thats why Facebook is so popular. A bunch of people talking about themselves and sell promotion. No thanks.

There are roughly 2,000 4-year colleges in the US.

Well sure, but my cat can probably get a degree from a few hundred of those for "life experiences." There aren't that many good schools that would warrant a tasteless license plate bragging about your less than perfect GPA though.

The plate isn't school issued, it's just a holder...

Then at the very least, the poor thing should swap it out to MIT or the Starfleet Academy.

A friend of mine in the Air Force used to tell young pilots that bragged about how good they were - "If you are really good, you will never have to tell anyone." I think that is solid advice for all of us in anything we do.

Why brag about a 3.9? It's not a 4.0.
