Just to clarify, my problem is not with Hummers per se, it was with the obnoxious vanity plate. If it had been a Porsche with an obnoxious vanity plate, I would have thought the same.

Yup, you're right...spitting in someone's face or taking a dump on their shoe works well too!

Not sure how you can relate obnoxious vanity plate with either of the above.

As you unwittingly suggest in your inquiry, examples, one and all, of how to be obnoxious towards those around you, those suggested in my comment obviously being elevated in degree a notch or two. For dramatic effect.

At least one poster understood the analogy…
