In no particular order, here are 40 of the more creative attempts to beat the system and send out a NSFW message. (NOTE: Some of these are pretty racy, so if you're good at figuring out personalized plate messages and are easily offended, proceed at your own risk. You have been warned.)

Not much I can add to that gargantuan list other than Missourians are very creative with numbers as letters to try and sneak messages by the censors.

You can check out the full rejected Missouri list if you're curious. Just know that I've shared the PG14 versions while the full list has some outright R-rated and worse plates.
