No, it's morphed into one of those pearls of wisdom that people pass down and truly believe. They all have their 'true story' of blipping the throttle and "suddenly the car that was moving over to smush me stopped!!!!!!!!" The assholes who know it isn't true can be discerned from the true believers by the humor they find in their tales of blasting people with sounds.
