A little introspection can be a good thing, though.  If this sort of thing is happening to you repeatedly, you may very well be doing something "wrong," even if it's not work related but just something about you that causes these people to see you as fodder.  

The one constant in all your bad experiences is you.

Don't "own" the problem emotionally if it's not your issue.  I know
people whose reaction to being needled by someone at work is to spend
hours and hours trying to figure out what they did wrong, when the
answer is often times "You did nothing to deserve this."
