Be deeply insulted by a stranger

A stranger's opinion carries no personal weight; you can dismiss it entirely since they know nothing about your life
Being insulted leaves no physical mark, and the emotional sting fades quickly when the source is irrelevant to you

Be slapped across the face

Words can cause lasting psychological harm that replays in your mind long after the encounter is over
The force of a slap is unspecified; a light touch is trivial, and physical sensations pass more predictably than emotional wounds
