Sure, that's why open pipes at three AM are run full throttle in second gear on a city street with thousands of houses. It's simply narcissism.

I had the pleasure of living on Overtoom in Amsterdam, which is a beautiful street but I'm a relatively light sleeper and even at the back part of the house you'd be woken up several times every night by some 'look at me' dude making as much noise as possible. Not a car pulling out in sight at that hour.
