  3. Floor it so the wheels spin?
2 & 3 includes a wide, evil grin as a bonus.

Just today: waiting to exit a strip mall car park. The guy was obviously on his phone and missed about four opportunities to get out. A little bit of a toot to wake him up earned me the middle finger.

Was likely to be an emergency call. You know the ones. Asking his missus whether they are having KFC or Maccas for dinner.
 
Note to self: If I ever need a hospital, stay away from the hospital... right.

The first band to play stadiums was The Beatles, with two dates at Shea Stadium in 1965, playing to 55,000 each night.

The last gig at Shea Stadium was a Billy Joel concert in 2008; Paul Macartney put in a cameo appearance and closed the show with Let It Be.
