Like a fine wine; best enjoyed in moderation.
Impossible with my AWD traction.
like everything else, better in the dirt.
...puerile.
In reply to wspohn :
I like fancy words but I had to look this one up so you earn a meme!
My grandfather, after hearing tires squealing down the road in front of his house: "So what are they trying to prove? Stanley Steamers used to be able to burn through a set of tires without even trying!"
A waste of rubber.
...best when already in motion.
Call me a child(seriously, I won't be offended. I know I am) but a rolling burnout for 50 or so feet on the 1-2 shift always tickles my fancy. Heck, a little sideways shimmy doing the left onto a freeway onramp immediately kicks a childish giggle from my face.

You just need more power. AWD burnouts are fun!
Only good at the dragstrip with soft tires.
...required when driving the rambler car
....were created by tire salesmen.

Apropos of the "car so fast it scared you" thread, I still recall riding in a BGN that got squirrely-sideways rolling on the throttle at 80mph, because I-480 is asphalt.
On concrete instead of asphalt, it could accelerate in 2nd gear.
...are people who have over-participated in something and now they look haggard and feel wasted or tired. 
Burnouts are fun in a video game, and fun in real life, but significantly cheaper in the video game.
The only cool burnouts are Caddy 500/472 FWD burnouts.
...difficult at best in any of my cars. #miata4life
Something I miss about my Tesla. It is appreciably better in most ways than my V but a hot lap in the V all loose and smokey makes me giggle.
...sitting on a school bus right now singing the same Iron Maiden lyrics to themselves over and over
"Not a prisoner, I'm a free man, and my blood is my own now"
"I'm runnin' free yeah, I'm runnin' free"
"Womennnn in uniform"

I worked on formulating another one, along these lines:
Powersliding is to drifting as deer hunting is to war
Never been to war, myself
EDIT: this is a SUPER motivating video about powerslide vs drifting
Fun
Burnouts are how I used to give my back tire a proper sendoff.
God, I miss that bike!
A great way to use some of mom's bleach.
