Cindy resists flying the bird

On her Facebook wall, Cindy tells of resisting temptation to flip someone off in traffic today. In fact, she comments that she's never flipped anyone off:

"True fact. I have never, ever flipped anyone off. But today, I was sorely tempted. I had time to ponder the idea of it because I was stuck in traffic and had endured some rude behavior from another driver. I shared the incident with Zach, who was solidly down with his mother flipping the bird, feeling the situation warranted such expression. However, I passed on the opportunity. I am sure between now and death further chances will arise, but it's not like it's on my bucket list or anything."

Question (which I might have asked recently): Do you flip people off? When & why was the last time?
