I see this a lot more lately, scrubbing all the paint off a California license plate, but not the stuff that matters, the letters and numbers

 

I might be easily amused, but I get a lot of enjoyment from Calvin and Hobbes (posted for the punchline in the last panel)

what Ghost Rider looked like in the comic books in the 80s

 

the 80s version of Capt America, used this Harley and this Chevy van

last week they were in a taller version, but still BMW

and at another fast food place I go to. 

a 69 Jeep Commando racing in the Baja 1000, taking 2nd place in it's class (Pioneer 4x4)
