Easily Confused

Today I found myself driving behind someone who's license plate frame said, "I HATE THE WAY YOU DRIVE." I thought that was pretty lame, especially since it was so far removed from what I originally thought it said. I originally thought it said, "I MATE THE WAY YOU DRIVE." I wasn't sure what that meant. I figure, since it was posted on the rear plate, maybe he intended you to only read the license plate if you were right on his rear end, if you know what I mean.

I really don't want to know.
