I use the last 4 digits of old phone numbers I've had, like from my childhood.
I'm not likely to forget them, and good luck tying them to me.

My phone number (number*s*, now that I've joined the club and carry a phone) has had the same last 4 digits for my entire life...
If I used that as my PIN, anyone who knows my phone number would have a pretty good chance at guessing it.

You have the same phone number you did when you were a child?

I do the same thing -- a landline number that hasn't existed in 30 years since my folks sold my childhood house.

Now someone needs to pin this post. We should probably do it in numbers.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

As having personally used a pin number I had to guess in order to use, I'd have to say "It's not how you used the pin number to "get in", it's how do you change it that really matters".

Whelp! Time to change all my pins to more secure ones! 9596 it is!

Greetings Kind Regards
My most recent interaction w/ Microsoft Support was signed off as " support person name (Shanghai Wicresoft Co,.Ltd.) [MSFT]" They have a web site. Apparently many happy programmers. And they know how to dance.

And they probably enjoy driving in their affordable electric vehicles

Soon we may also unless they invent something superior perhaps teleporting the inexpensive EVs as it seems it is the United Federation of Planets vs the Romulans.

Yes, only backwards-flat-earther, luddites who know nothing of technology would say something against flying cars. Same thing for EVs. Anyone who knows anything about tech knows that electric flying car is the optimal solution and anyone who says it's not so are dumber than the rocks they keep drilling through to get oil.

Most people can't handle the two dimensions of road driving. They'll never figure out three-dimensional driving.

As someone who is dumber than rocks, I would like to counter your assertion.
In order to gain altitude, or maintain an altitude, you need a lot of energy to counter the opposing force of gravity. Which requires more energy? A car parked on the ground running at idle, or a helicopter hovering 50 ft. in the air? I'd say that the helicopter is expending more energy than the car parked on the ground idling.
Consider battery technology. There has been great progress, but modern batteries are heavy. Given how heavy batteries are in relation to the amount of energy that they produce prohibit them from use in operating aircraft. Sure, I've seen aircraft prototypes that are powered by electricity. It's a neat concept, but I can't see how it would be practical with today's technology.
I would love to have a car that flies, and with all of the highways in the sky, it would revolutionize transportation. One day, we will have the technology to build electrically powered aircraft that are practical and efficient. I don't know when that will be, but it will happen.

As someone who is dumber than rocks permit me to state :
re/ helicopter hovering : Presumably flying cars have no need to hover. Will traffic lights or STOP signs be placed up in the sky? 
re/ heavy battery : Consider H2 as a fuel. Such a gas bag is light and may even provide lift.
re/ electric car is the optimal solution : I assume it was meant in jest.
re/ this post : Likewise.
