I find comments like “grow a thick skin” exceptionally boring, and not overly intelligent. It would appear to me that people who enjoy that type of comment don’t have much insight into themselves or others. JMO.
You say “maybe I need to deal better” - maybe this is what people who make insensitive or trite comments want you to feel...
No need to apologise for the rant.
