I saw something on the way to work this morning that was so bizarre it will haunt me if I can’t come up with a plausible background story. So I submit to you wise and funny folks, explain this…
Traffic is stalled at a green light. 20 something hipster on a motorcycle in the left turn lane makes his way to the right with a wave. Light changes to red. Hipster on a bike is now on the right curb adjusting a license plate into a bush, the license plate, as I can best recall says “GABILI”. He leaves the license plate in the bush, maneuvers back onto the right lane, light changes to green and he continues forward. I can’t be weird and follow him because I have a job, so the story ends there.
Best explanation wins a picture of a cat reading a book.

He had too much on his plate, didn't want to beat around the bush and decided not to take license with progress.

Well, gabi.li is a Liechtenstein lingerie website. Maybe he was covering that bush with licensed attire?

The hipster was listening to the radio, heard there was a manhunt out for a hipster for crimes against fashion....riding a motorcycle with the license plate "GABILI." Rather than ditch the bike he decides to get rid of the license plate and thinks that if he puts it in the bush, the bush will soon be arrested. He now goes to the coffee house for a poetry slam, confident that they will never find him.

So now he has poetic license?

I got nuthin, so I have to jack your thread
One day I was walking to Walmart at lunchtime; Walmart was right across the street from my office (back of Walmart faced the front of my building.
As I was crossing the street, I watched a car stop at the curb; a woman jumped out and put a tupperware container under a bush, jumped back in the car and sped off 
I was too skeered to look in the container; probably a housewife drug ring making a drop?

"Gay Billy" is his hipster superhero name. He was obviously on his way to change clothes and report into work. His other license plate, which he keeps near his suit and tie, reads "BIZBIL"

Well, if that is to be all the entries, I suppose it is time to declare a winner.

Congratulations to you TR, your witty word play won me over.
Of course, all of your explanations will help me sleep better and are much appreciated, so here are some additional pics. Feel free to fight over them.
And Sad, house wife drug ring is much better than anything I would have come up with in your scenario. I was imagining some horribly rotten left overs that had to be disposed of post haste.

Thanks! People say that I'm full of wit ...
... but they're only half-right.
