I am a big fan of witty retorts. Something along the line of " Oh, I thought that was your mom, aren't you out past your curfew, young man?" Then when you are assaulted you can really make it stick. It is hard to make a shove stick when there are not any physical symptoms. I am about 50/50 with the witty comebacks, though. Sometimes I can think of them, and sometimes I just stand there and take it. They do not work so well if they do not have the appropriate wit. Yelling "Ungh......Stupidhead!!!" just does not have the right effect. They just think you are slow. (Trust me.) Keep a couple ready just in case. Try "you know what they say about people with small hands, right?" or "Isn't tonight group night?" or something that applys to people in a general sense.
Good luck next time.
