Huh what? Noooooo... Not in reverse

Without getting Off-Topic... which I already did. The answer to your question can vary a lot .

Possible answers:
. Get a feel of the trottle
. Look Cool
. Make some noise
. Be bored
. Don't know his foot is on the gas pedal
. Want to impress the cute girl with his fart can
. so on, so forth

I do that when I'm feeling lazy.

If you get lazy or aren't really "with it" in a manual, you either slip the clutch too fast, stall and look stupid; or you apply the gas a little early to make sure you don't look like an idiot. I really think I do that when I don't feel like paying attention to my driving.
