Have you had to deal with adult bullies? [I Hate Bullies]

I went to a class reunion, and was pleasant to one man who was in my first grade class. He had too much to drink, stood up, and told everyone about an accident I had in the first grade. That was over six deacdes ago. Everybody who was present roared; I wanted to die.I refused to go to any more reunions, and the man died recently.
