Asheville, North Carolina — When you’re young, you dream about what cause you might end up dedicating your life to—fighting fires, rescuing animals, traveling to outer space—or the fight to keep a vanity license plate that says “FART.”
Karly Sindy of Asheville, N.C. is proudly carrying the torch for toilet humour after the DMV told her that they had received complaints about her “offensive” license plate, but that a letter explaining “what the plate means to [her]” could potentially convince the state to allow the gas to pass, as it were.
After consulting Reddit for the best course of action, Sindy devised the Friends of Asheville Recreational Trails (FART) club—a completely real and legitimate club in the city of Asheville that held a small meet-up to prove that they absolutely are real and have existed for longer than an hour.
Sindy applied for her custom plate back in October, was surprised that the DMV approved it at all and is currently awaiting a reBUTTal (get it) from the government institution on whether she can let it rip out there on the roads.
