He did the right thing to leave the obnoxious alone. Some people are having a bad day and looking for a row, so don't give them the satisfaction. It's not worth the time and consequences to oneself.
I totally agree with you. The OP was obviously very wound up at the time this occured, and probably gets wound up thinking back to then, but does see the funny side. No need for people (not you) to comment how amusing it is that he's still wound up about it.
