it's a mystery

[marcicat]

Since I've been driving less, I've also been spending less time trying to decipher license plates, but I've spent a considerable amount of time trying to figure out a local plate that just says: DUST.

It must mean the word 'dust,' right? (As in, not a random set of letters or initials that just *happen* to spell dust.) But why? My associations with the word are basically:

1) That Highlander movie.

2) The canon version of all the daemon AUs, which I have only actually experienced through a movie I mostly remember being sad. (Was Jude Law in it? The internet says he was not, which may mean I am even more confused than I thought.)

3) A chore I gleefully don't do week after week.

So I'm not entirely sure why someone would pick it for their license plate. But I enjoy pondering the mystery!

The idea of Jude Law having been in it was very convincing -- I had to go check! It seems like something he should have been in. :-)

Right? After some checking, it's possible I'm confusing 'Golden Compass' and 'Hugo,' both of which fell into the category of 'movies I thought I'd like a lot more than I actually did,' but only one of which included Jude Law, lol.

Maybe Daniel Craig was playing Jude Law playing the character...
