Narrative:
Exhaust pipe fell off, passenger deplaned to clear runway and walked back to the ramp. No other planes in the area. Aborted takeoff, told tower I felt it was important clear the runway of debris as soon as possible so as not to interrupt any traffic. The controller told me not to do this anymore and I won't.
