How long has it been since the last time you had someone publicly jeer you?

Just got back from a hospital visit and while waiting for my ride to come pick me up had a bunch of High School age gang members come through and try to make fun of me for being bald while filming with their phones. I just ignored them and they moved on after several minutes, but hadn't been publicly jeered since Middle School prior.

Have you been publicly jeered before? If so, how long has it been since the last occasion?

People can be cruel sadly. I'm sorry this happened to you. :(
Nothing recent for me except a character assassination in my personal life, that was painful.

@Peaceful: Eh, it's alright. Just not a thing I'd had happen for quite some time. Didn't let them bother me, hence them moving on after a while. I was slightly concerned I was about to get mugged for a moment when they encircled me, though I had less than $10 on me at the time so the joke would've been on them, but it turned out to just be petty insults. Could've been far worse.

Sucks that would happen to you though. People can be really shitty sometimes.

@UndeadPrivateer: some people suck, there's no getting around this reality. Yeah, jealousy is a powerful thing.
