A co-worker recently emailed me a shot from his camera phone of a license plate with the above declaration. The car was in our work parking lot.

A few days later, the driver of said car was arriving at work at the same time as me. It was one the developers, a nice, younger Indian guy with whom I'd had some work interaction. So I approached him and asked him, with as straight a face as I could muster, "What does your license plate refer to?". Turns out to be the name of his home state in India.

I then proceed to ask him if he gets a lot of thumbs-up and horn honks from guys in camaros and 4x4's. He lit up a little, "Yeah, why does this happen?" I then proceeded to explain the more, um, colorful meaning of the term. His jaw just sorta dropped to the floor.

So much for the censors at the dmv.

Interestingly, lately he's taken to wearing hipster sunglasses and shirts open to the chest...

Pronounced "poon ah", this is where my technical support for my former employer's Siebel system came from. The Pune team.
