No.

If I did, I would need to buy new horns from using them so much.

I pretty much only honk as a warning, like intended

I do but most of the time, the idiotic driver doesn't even notice they're being honked at.

This. Honking because you're throwing a temper tantrum is just dangerous and more likely to cause an accident.

I only honk at red-lights and such and I usually give the person a good 5-10 seconds of the light already being green.

Honking out of anger serves no purpose but to potentially escalate the situation if they attempt to engage me. And there are some crazy mother fuckers that won't think twice about shooting you in the head over a fit of road rage.

I couldn't give a shit if people get pissed at me. There's two people's opinion of me I care about in the world: My dad and my fiance. I could not care less about pissing off some random dickhead who merged without indicating.

I usually flip them off, but mostly only if they seem malicious about it. Everyone fucks up, and if it was obviously an 'oopsie' I'll just roll my eyes and shake my head.

I overtake and speed past. Plus, I don't tailgate, ever.

If the error made was particularly dangerous, I'll honk after the fact. Sure, I anticipated the danger, but usually they're situations where a less vigilant driver would probably crash. Something like a 4 way stop where I have right of way but part way through my turn left, a car across pulls into the 4 way and blows past their stop sign without stopping to cut me off. Or someone literally swerving halfway into another lane almost continuously as if they were drunk or belligerently texting. Shit like that I'll definitely honk at.

If they try and weasel into my lane on the freeway and there is less than 2 car-lengths between, I usually let it slide. I'd have preferred and would have opened up space if they signaled, but usually it's pretty predictable anyway. I don't really consider it "cutting off" even though some might see it that way. It's not too hard for me to let off the gas and reopen the space.

And it's not like I think every broken rule constitutes dangerous driving. It depends on the road conditions, traffic, and overall context. I honk at shit I genuinely perceive to be dangerous because they need to knock it the fuck off.
