This.

"I was having a chill drive". Okay turd nugget we don't care about tHe gEneRaL vIbE oF yOuR dRiVe. We're interested in the situation.

Second, the story has holes in it. The way OP tells it, there's a car in front of holding up traffic. So the guy wasn't honking at OP, he was honking at the guy in front of OP. I get you're in line of fire, and that's unfortunate, but you're not the main character. Sometimes shit is just unfortunate and you're in the background of it, mind your own business and don't worry so much about other people's problems. But then also, OP says "You don't have to fucking wait for me". So wtf was it, was there another car in front or are you lying out your ass for intrawebz pts?

Third, let's not skip the fact that OP's "you don't have to fucking wait for me" is OP demanding others work around him. That' OP acts as if they're a problem that everyone else should be putting extra effort into avoiding, which is a fucking shit attitude to have when driving a fucking car.

Look, I'm not there. And I hate the online comments that act like they know more than the person telling the story. So I'm not going to be "THIS IS DEFINITELY WHAT HAPPENED". It could be OP innocently omitted a detail from the story. But it sounds suspiciously like someone was trying to turn left at a no left intersection and deserved to have their ears blown out with a car horn. Most left turning lanes in NJ are just that: exclusively left turning lanes. If there's no exclusively left turning lane, it's usually a jughandle. Trying to make an illegal left? They deserve to go deaf, the last thing we need is someone's stupid ass plowing into a mom driving her kid to soccer practice because they can't read road signs. Again, maybe there were just key details accidentally omitted. Maybe it is the few roads that are stupid in this state (it happens, esp in rural areas). But that doesn't detract that as of now, there's no reason to support OP's story.
