    There’s a bunch of potential explanations. for example he could remind them of a character from some media they had consumed.

    I mean if they’re kids what does it even matter? Kids have the attention span of five seconds. There’s no way any of them even remember that moment.

      I’m dating a girl that only wears nike shoes. She has like 30 pairs. Sometimes she sees a shoe and says: aww that one is nice, but it’s no nike. She said kids in her school made fun of her shoes, because she was poor, and bow she only wears nike shoes. I just find it odd to let 8 year olds decide how you live your life. She’s 35. Kids made fun of me because i wore levis jeans. I didn’t even know what that means at the time.

        That stuff can traumatize you for a long time. I’m a pretty big, bearded 30 something guy, who was subjected to pretty intense bullying in school as well.

        Literally to this day my heart starts racing and I start to panic sweat when I hear giggling teenagers in public.
