We have all been there. Someone is in your face screaming themselves hoarse at your expense.
My method was (people do not shout at me these days) to take a step back and whisper a response.
Continue to whisper your responses. Stops them immediately because they need to know what you said.
They expect to drag you into responding by shouting. All they want to do is win a shouting contest.
If you do not shout your reply, they lose.
Very effective method of stopping someone screaming at you.

Rarely happens to me but it did the other day.Walking the dog,some bloke behind me with his dogs started shouting “Move on,don’t stop” and kept on as they got closer.So of course we stopped, a lot of our walk is the dog stopping and sniffing things.As he went went passed I didn’t look at him or acknowledge hie existence at all…I could tell he was fuming

I’ve never had anyone shout at me loudly or even be aggresive … I’d run a mile now if anyone did, or hide behind the nearest bloke,

I’m afraid if someone was in my face shouting I would punch him in the face…I’m sorry, I wish I could resist the urge, I’ve been there a couple of times, and the result was the same. It didn’t always come out well, but you don’t think of that at the time.

I have never had someone scream in my face but I think I would just walk away if it did happen.

I think the only time this has happened to me is road rage cyclists. One twisted my wing mirror off. Another put her bike in the middle of the road blocking my way. There was no way to stop them shouting. You have to just wait until they stop huffing and puffing.

Hang on a minute, just need to change programmes on my hearing aid, can’t hear what’s being said one minute, the next, people are shouting. Made in China probably. NHS rubbish.

Sadly, I had this situation before divorcing my husband. My way of dealing with it was to video as much as possible on my phone.

Usually when someone is shouting in your face then they’ve lost composure and self control.
Take a deep breath and a step or two backwards.
Don’t join the club

I simply eyeball them/stare and say nothing until they take a breath.
Then I quietly say, “Are you finished?”

I see most of you are not in the USA , we are bit more quite here as do not yell , scream at each other we just shoot at each other .
So I guess we might say bit more civil ?

I think that’s a very civilised way of channeling your angst.

Going back 4 years I went to an outside shooting range and hit everyone’s target but mine , the guy next to me whose target was like 20 feet from mine looked at me funny and I said " Oh I meant to do that "
Good thing I never went on any patrols when I was in the Army

lol yes that is the key as no need to be rude even when shooting someone as good manners are imperative
