The ad hominem part is specifically trying to discredit your arguments on the basis of an unrelated trait. They’re making no attempt to do any such thing. It’s rude, sure. But there’s no argument in there. Read the examples in the wiki.
Ad hominem is more like whining, “you all downvoted me but didn’t reply,” with the implication that the position is correct because of their actions. “Shut up,” isn’t an ad hominem, it’s just rude.
How is “shut your stupid fucking mouth, kid” not a personal attack instead of attacking the substance of my arguments?

Not “downvoted me”, I’m not the original commenter. Saying “you’re disagreeing with the OC without bringing any actual arguments” isn’t ad-hominem.
Calling someone a fucking stupid kid, is.
Again, you don’t understand what the term means. I invite you to read the wikipedia examples to familiarize yourself.
