I bought a military watch. It didn't tell me the time, it told me to get my hair cut.

If they were throwing stones or something like that I could understand, but I thinks its taking it a bit too far?
It depends on your point of view, would you feel that way if it was your car the drink landed on and you didn't know if a stone was following it?
When I'm driving on motorways I always keep a watchful eye on overhead bridges that have people on stood them, ever since taxi driver David Wilkie was killed by a block of concrete during the miners strike. Poor sod.
On a cold winter's day close to Oxford, it happened to me.
There were some 'yoofs' standing on a bridge over the A40 and one minute I was looking out of the windscreen, the next minute I was effectively blind thanks to the 'yoofs' and a piece of a brick. By punching a hole in the (non-laminated) screen, I was able to see (ish) and managed to stop the car without wasting myself, my cousin, the other traffic or the crash barriers. All thoughts of revenge had disappeared and I was more interested in how we were going to continue the journey and also on checking the integrity of my underpants.
Not a very pleasant experience. Though nor was the head-on crash (which wasn't my fault), we had on the way back. :(
