2. I'd stop, look him up and down and say: "It's too bad you've taken your own advice"

At least, if I had 30 secs to construct my witty and similarly obnoxious retort
Yours was still very good given the timeframe involved  |

3. I hear ya! It's happened to me a few times too
|
I still mask up every time I go into a store or public building. If anybody says anything to me (it's rare) I look them in the eye and I say, "I'm making my choices and you're making yours."
Most people accept that with no problem.   |

If they do, it's already in my brain to retort "Mind you own fucking business" and keep walking.

34. No one has ever said a single word to me.

And I’m not even a big strong tough guy.
If anyone has ever looked at me askance, I’d be unaware of it because I stopped worrying about how people view me somewhere in the high school years. |

36. So you'd try to cripple someone for making an inane remark to you?
|
Trust me, you wouldn’t have lasted long living as a woman. Every woman here probably has a story about some silly, and often offensive, remark directed at her.
Gotta wonder, how are you going to handle it when arrested for assault and thrown in the pokey? Oops! Just exposed yourself to WAY more chance of infection.  |
