Default Any Negative Reactions from Stranger?

I think its been discussed a lot - the positive reactions that you get from strangers when you are obviously pregnant - sometimes TOO positive when they want to rub your belly or something like that!

Has anyone, besides me, had any strangers say something negative to them about their pregnancy?

I was shopping in the supermarket one day with my 9 month old son and my obviously pregnant belly (my boys came exactly 1 year and 2 weeks apart) and some older woman came up to me and started YELLING that I was a perfect example of what was wrong with the world: unmarried teens pushing out babies and going on welfare! I just gaped at her (as did many other people nearby) and snapped, "Not that it is any of your business, but I'm 24, married, own a house and have never been on any kind of assistance!" She just humphed like she didn't believe me and stalked off.
