First of all, NEVER ever use your phone to take pictures while driving, unless you find yourself at a long stoplight. I was heading home with a bite to eat and I found myself behind this produce truck on Frederica, and I look up and I don't see the classic "WASH ME!", I see this exclamation.

The joke that instantly popped into my head, this is some sort of kooky Eastern European language translation for wash me. Then my brain goes into overload. What does it mean? And why and how did a person climb up that high to draw the word on this truck? Well if you know, me, off to Google I went.

It's not a real word, but the Urban Dictionary has a definition for it, as follows:

"Yake-a person who creates horrible ideas in a time of need" Ouch! Well, maybe not a hard burn, but it's definitely a different type of insult. From what I can gather, it has to be some kind of foreign insult term, maybe Yiddish? Yet my research did not yield if this is a word from another language.

I just have to give props to the offender for creativity. WASH ME's days are numbered.
