Here's another, Some bastards at work thought it would be funny to attach flashing caps for a bicycle on to my ol' ZX6. In the morning I had two flats. The weight had bent the valves to a point where there was a hair line crack  where the rubber had started to split. Luckily I wasn't doing my usual spead and they went down slowly so I only noticed the next morning. Luckily for them (or me) I couldn't get to work that day( I most likely would have had a GBH against me or worse). So I use the standard plastic caps just to be safe.

Problem was I have a compressor but the valves where split. so wouldn't hold pressure and to top it off I didn't have a wrench to get the wheels off. Had to push it down to th ebike shop, lucky it's only 500 yards.
