OP wasn’t friends though he’d never met them before. Going that hard on someone who doesn’t know the group and boundaries they are comfortable with is not a way to make friends. They basically called him a pussy and shat on something he clearly put effort into right to his face. This story is obviously made up but if that’s how you treat people you want to include in your group you’re doing it wrong.
I think chugging the hot sauce he brought and saying it wasn’t hot was calling him a pussy. Everyone joining in and laughing at him added to it. Damaging his property was also pretty disrespectful. It’s not harmless, it’s humiliating, to someone with social anxiety problems it will be scarring. Like I said before if they all knew each other it wouldn’t be that bad but he’s new to the group and the first thing they did was embarrass the shit out of him.
Idk if its “his property” anymore, he left it behind with seemingly no intention of going back for it. But how would you not laugh at that? Some new guy you’ve never met shows up with this outrageously elaborate setup for his homemade ultra-hot hot sauce and when you try it, it isn’t spicy
Because usually when someone does something that weird there’s usually something wrong with them mentally and picking on people like that is assholish.
You really seem intent on finding malice and being offended.
They said his sauce wasnt that hot, so clearly they’re calling him a pussy.
They laughed, so clearly they were cruelly laughing at his expense.
They took a lot of time and effort to make a joke that played on the thing he’d made, so clearly they wanted to make sure this guy knows hes a piece of shit that isnt welcome at their meet ups

You think “Mild Food Emergency Unit” was going hard and basically calling him a pussy? That is such a light, harmless joke.

That’s how social anxiety works buddy.
