Once I was walking out of a Target. I passed by a woman and her maybe 6 or 7 year year old kid just in time to hear the kid say "mommy that guy creeps me out".

Thanks to three concussions before age 5... and my entire 20's being spent in a drug haze... my memory is pretty shot. But I remember that encounter as clear as day.

I'm sure I've received a few honest to goodness unsolicited compliments, but they don't stick in my mind as much as the derision.

It really has a distinct sting, doesn't it? Cheers to dealing with it and moving on I suppose.
