After a long day I was waiting at the bus stop and I saw a white van pulled up by the red light, the guy in the passenger seat pull down his window and said "happy valentines day my love" I didn't turn my head to look at him just straight up ignore him that's how I deal with those situations. He then said "ayo make sure you lined up that mustache" I actually have a mustache like any other human everyone does, and he started to laugh and left. I felt like crying right there i looked around to see if anyone was there but still that really hurt me especially im struggled with body hair.
Being in a car is one of those things that emboldens people to say or do cruel things. Not only can you not reach him, but after he drives away, he doesn't have to look at you and think about how you feel.
The internet is another one of those things. Not only are people totally anonymous, but any time they actually start to feel guilty, they can just log off and pretend it isn't happening. I have a feeling that most of the people who like to troll other people online wouldn't do it if they actually had to watch their victims break into tears in real-time.
It's a common sentiment that these shields of anonymity reveal a person's true self - that some people are naturally mean and only behave well in public for fear of consequences. I kind of mostly agree, but not completely. It's definitely true that these things bring out the worst in people, but we've all done things we aren't proud of. I think everyone is capable of cruelty. Anger, combined with freedom from consequences, brings out demons many of us didn't even realize we had.
I recall reading a short story called "Fortress of Cowards" where a person stuck in traffic witnesses another driver get out of his car and yell at a bus that had cut him off or something. The narrator of the story notes that most people would never do that when face-to-face with another person, but while inside their cars, on the road, even shy and mild-mannered people like the narrator can become vicious in a fit of rage.
Oh, but yeah, that guy who called out to you sounds like a real asshole. Sorry that happened.
Everyone does not have a mustache. You don't have a mustache either, at least not in that pic. What is "lining up a mustache"? Who hits on someone and then makes fun of them? Story doesn't make any sense..
