AMERPWR

I am sure this means something that I don't understand.

I am sure there's some meaning behind it that is distinctly unracist.

But, this car lives or works near my condo downtown and I've seen it over a dozen times, and each time I get a weird feeling in my stomach.

Maybe because I complete the first word to be America.  America Power.

Now, I have nothing against national pride, I am pretty proud to be an American myself, and feel fortunate and blessed that we live in a country where idiots are allowed to express their stupidity all over their cars, and that I am able to judge them from atop my peak on Mount Pious.

All that said, there is something dark feeling about the phrase America Power!

It makes me think of skinheads and Eddie Furlong in American History X.

Of course I realize it is probably referring to the fact that Corvette is an American car, hence he is driving around in "America Power", but that was the third thing I thought of when I saw this plate.

First, I thought it was the dark, weirdly racist feeling phrase "America Power!"

Next, I figured that AMER had to be something I didn't know about, and aside from discovering it is a name in some language, I found nothing that revealed anything interesting, so I went back to the theory that this Corvette was clearly driven by neo-Nazi.

Finally, I associated the car with the plate and arrived at the American car theory.

This took a long time.  This took me seeing the car half a dozen times at least before deciding that the driver probably is not dumb enough to advertise xenophobia, but just dumb enough to not realize his plate makes people think he has it.

Either that, or his name is Amer.  Whatever.

Knock it off Amer, your car makes you look stupid.
