Just be thankful they didn't key or otherwise abuse your car, like what happened to me a couple of times. Then again, maybe I just have bad karma

Because he cares and can't move on.

Personally I would have laught my ass of if somebody wrote that on my car, and enjoyed my ride home.
That's just it, I don't care. I have moved on, it just got me thinking. I don't see it as an insult. So what if I'm young and professional. I hardly see that as a bad thing.

It's like when some youngster refers to me as a "bald headed geezer". It's meant as an insult, but since I AM a bald headed geezer, I see it as an accomplishment of sorts. My skin has definitely thickened as I've aged.

I'm 30 and I drive THE YUPPIE car according to most people and love it. And no I didn't buy the car for status (well, maybe a little honestly). Some cars are just associated with certain classes of people. I'd consider it a compliment they did that to your car cause they were jealous of your ride! When other drivers acknowledge my car I consider it a compliment that they noticed. (slightly modded 330ci). Granted, most of the time that is cutting me off, fake swerving into me, not letting me in etc... Cause as we know all other drivers are out to F&&K with the BMW (at least it seems like that somedays). That is the only negative I have about owning a BMW is that when you buy one your instantly grouped into Yuppie A-hole group even by your friends, not to mention other drivers!!!! Sucks, but I really enjoy my Bimmer. Hope I will like the S2000 as much if I decide to get one.

You sure seem upset by this?? Do you feel guilty you made it? As long as they didn't damage the car, forget about it! Did you buy anything at Tweeter? B&K man, I'm telling you!!!!!

Not at all! I was at the Tweeter Center seeing John Meyer and Counting Crows, not the store.
