Will you STFU and go ride your bike? Join the group rides. We have teen agers on some of our group rides, some very fast, some slow, they get yelled at sometimes, but we try to take them under our wing and encourage them. You'll probably get the same reaction, if not, try a different group. This sport needs new blood for after when the rest of us get flattened.
