I got mad at my landlord a few weeks ago, and when I pulled onto the street I saw he was standing right there in his front yard. I did a nice, smoky burnout (could barely see the bike when it was all over) while flipping him off. Not the smartest move, but man did it feel good!

Well done, at least you did it without a stop for the front and didn't end up on "greatest bike burnout crashes of 2011".
