Some people have no clue why you're flashing.

I remember a few years ago reading about a guy who got a ticket for doing this. Don't know what law he was breaking

No I don't.
I only flash friends and flash those who drive with their highbeams on.

I don't usually flash because people don't always know why you're flashing them... I don't want to risk starting road rage or something.
