number plate

Identifying plates fitted to vehicles in the UK (and elsewhere), carrying the vehicle's registration number.
Similar to License plate, Registration plate etc.

In the UK the reg. no. belongs to the vehicle, not the driver, and contains information about the age of the vehicle and the region in which it was first sold. The system is administered by the DVLA.

The reg. number is alphanumeric, and takes the form AB12 CDE on vehicles registered after 2001, or A123 BCD on vehicles registered before 2001.

Some scouse git has stolen my number plates. Now I will be done by the police.

glass plating

A sexual act in which one person lies underneath a glass coffee table while a partner takes a dump on the table.

Don't go in that place on Kearny Street with the "nastiest videos in town" sign. They got glass plating in there.

Hero plate

A large plate with either huge servings of one to two dishes or smaller servings of multiple dishes. A plate fit for a very hungry superhero after saving the world.

I'm going to make a hero plate and then pass out from food coma.

ambassador plate

A small plate (normally a bread plate) used to create a small portion of food from your dinner plate for sharing purposes amongst friends, thus preventing awkward plate passes and feeding someone off of your fork.

I couldn’t decide on what to get at the restaurant, but thanks to ambassador plates I tried the fish, the pork and the chicken.

plate envy

Irrational desire to dig your fork into the plate of food of those dining with you

Jim's so rude! Did you see his how fast he dug his fork into Maria's food as soon as it arrived. No manners - shear plate envy!
