If they said that verbatim that is super unprofessional and highly inappropriate conduct for a workplace. Best way is to pull them aside and tell them in private that you don’t appreciate such remarks. Otherwise, in a functional workplace report it to a manager/HR. That second quote alone would be grounds for a review if not more. What a fucking psycho thing to say to a work colleague. It reeks of workplace bullying.

I'll be the unwise advice commenter. Someone has to.
Wait until they say something intelligent. Wow, what an astute observation! You never talk about ideas. You usually just talk shit!
These people are adults? Jfc.

Did you say any of this to them?

Gods, I hate that... if you don't walk around grinning like an idiot at all times people think YOU'RE the weird one. I ended up practicing my smile, then flashing it during work interviews and when I first go in to work in the morning. After that if they say something I'll just pretend like I'm deep in thought.
