Our reading

An editorial interpretation.

An incredulous question about a strange habit: someone's mother puts license plates in their underwear, and the speaker wonders how they can even sit. The humour comes from picturing the awkward, clanking practicality of it, with the speaker's amazement landing on an ordinary physical problem.
