Like most others it's mostly when driving. I have mild to moderate road rage and by god I am the ONLY one on the road who knows how to drive! 
I really hope that I don't make the mistake of driving around Bangor or the surrounding areas and accidentally flipping off a certain Moderator. My car and license plate are rather distinctive 
Since what happens on the SKMB stays on the SKMB(right??) I also have a tendency to flip off unruly patients as they're leaving.....

One of the family culture things is to say to one another in times of sarcasm, "Look into my eye." If you've seen Aliens more than once, you'll get the reference. Just the statement. No accompanying gesture needed.
I'm determined to not let other people have control over how I feel, so my road rage is largely suppressed. Largely. Once in a while, someone insufferable gets the salute, but it's done safely, from under the dashboard.

Oh, I stopped doing it while driving. Lords. Some guy got mad and slowed his car down on a busy highway, making me slow down and stop. He stopped, got out of his car and walked toward me. Scary.
I was trapped. Somehow, I backed up and got out and back into traffic - and he chased me fast for miles. No kiddin.
I can't believe that I pulled a movie move. I slammed my brakes while he was beside me. He shot ahead and I quick got off a ramp that I saw coming up.
Shook me up bad.

I wasn't born with enough middle fingers.
I've been flipped off many times, usually because I'm abiding by traffic laws and driving carefully in a state full of madmen. Weirdly enough, the only people I've deliberately flipped off have been my closest friends. It was a bit of a joke between us when we were in our teens. I've never been that close to anyone since...
But I digress. One night, many years ago, I was sitting in the car with my best friend. It was cold, and the windows had gotten steamed up. We were waiting for my parents to finish shopping, so we'd already been in there for like an hour. Anyway, my bestie got bored and started drawing on the window.
With her middle finger.
It took me about five minutes to realize that she was inadvertently flipping off every single person who passed us by. We had a good laugh.
Then there was that time my idiot stepfather had both his middle fingers in bandages...

It honestly feels'like that, though. At least here. I feel like Cracker Jacks had a special on DLs one day and half the people in my state got them.
We were driving down the road one day. Our son was little this guy was driving crazy driving in and out cutting people off. Finally my husband had enough. He passes him and whips the bird says you're #1. The son about 2 years old. Starts yelling yay you're #1. We laughed so hard. If he had only known what he was saying.
One of my kids does this thing where she flips both birds, brings them up beside her head as if she's putting on a hat, and says in a hoity toity British accent, "I bestow upon you, my good sir, the crown of d¡cks. Made from the finest d¡cks in all the land."
I nearly ran the car off the road laughing the first time that happened.

Oh! Oh! I saw something on Fun Substance.
Teach your child to say "Behold" instead of the word "Look"
What did that poor bird ever do to you people for him to be constantly flipped?! Avian abusers!!
I saw a recent picture of Stephen King with another guy and King is 'flipping the bird'; the other guy has the 'chill-out' hand thing going.
