I experienced the cruelty and bullying so much that I started to think every comment was.
I still think a lot were. But going past school kids now I am double the age on my way to work and still hearing some similar things, I think some of them might just be stupid.
A recent one was “your wheel is going round!”… I am on a bike. Wtf does that even mean? Like… That is how bikes work?
But I am in my early 30s now and the kid was probably 14. It doesn’t feel quite like the same bullying I felt at school. There was definitely directed bullying too. Like being called gay, virgin, loser… But the dumber comments by other people, I don’t know what to make of that now.

That’s the prank.
The idea is that they “warn” you of something completely normal (like your wheel being round) and say it with a concerned tone (like how they’d say “hey your tyre is flat!”) so that you’d naturally stop your bike to check, making you look like a fool for stopping to check that your wheel is round.
