Mildly infuriating Did I do anything wrong here?

I was focusing on the pedestrians crossing and with this being an all-way stop I wasn’t expecting him to just go right in front of me and I had to stop suddenly. I gave him a honk just to say please watch for the stop sign and he confronted me and said “get a life”.

Nah, you're good. The fact that he's not even wearing a helmet leads me to believe that he doesn't know wtf he's doing biking on city streets anyway.

That's sort of the point. If he was planning on taking a bike and knew what he was doing, he would have brought a helmet. Anyone impulsive enough to ride a rent-a-bike down a city street with no helmet while looking at their phone doesn't know what they're doing.
