It really is the worst feeling if you haven't experienced it.
Mine was comparatively mild: I worked USC football games as a fundraiser for 4901. It's hot and sweaty work in big (drunken) crowds, but it's good money. I was on the ramps probably 30 minutes to kickoff, eyes towards the thousands pouring into the stadium, when someone came up on my blind side and just started playing with my sideburns (which were already a little disgusting from the heat and exertion) before continuing on up the ramp. I didn't have means to stop them, nor did it feel like it was worth my efforts to do so, but It Was Not Okay.
If you're going to clothespin, do it with consent or don't do it at all.
