Hi,
so now I have the intellectual maturity of a child. I provided a counterexample; and you provide this. Let you in on a secret....as a school bus driver; I get insulted fairly regularly. Over the years, something obvious finally occurred to me. When someone offers an insult; they are usually talking about themselves; or at least something they fear may be true.

"so now I have the intellectual maturity of a child."No,I suspect you've had it for some time.
"Let you in on a secret....as a school bus driver;(Do you say "Engage!" when you start 'er up ?- just trying to get back on topic) I get insulted ......"
If the kids are insulting you, let me let you in on some common knowledge: it's not possible to feel offense or be somehow damaged by the mere words of children, unless there's another meaning to the word "insult" you've invented. Maybe the kids just don't like you.
If there's adults insulting you, maybe they don't like you either.
"......fairly regularly."
No surprises there.
"When someone offers an insult; they are usually talking about themselves; or at least something they fear may be true."

(Do you have a "I stop for Borg Cubes" sticker on the back of the bus ?)
