On the way to work today I drove behind someone from Rhode Island (at my own peril). They had a vanity plate that said “RIVENT”.
My mind immediately jumps to “Man, that person must really like Myst to have a plate that says Riven on it.”
Then my geek morning addled mind realizes that this person probably thinks that Myst is a misspelling of the stuff that perpetually hangs around Providence, also known as fog.
Then begs to question what this license plate actually was being so vain about. RIVENT… like a Rhode Island vent? Or maybe Rhode Island event?
I’m glad I have this commute every morning to contemplate what is most important in life.
