I'm sitting in the lobby at a hostel. People are writing postcards, chatting with friends and surfing the net. There's this one guy who is drinking beers and staring intently at everyone else, wondering why no one is talking to him. He looks at me a lot. I think what's lost on him is the romantic version of the hostel where it's a place to instantly make friends. Funny enough, as we become more social online, we become less social offline.
My idea is to get this creep to stop staring at me. Since you have to book beds online through their website, they should ask each person to submit their myspace/facebook pages for other people to check out. If that violates privacy laws then they can just scrape info like the 'interests' and make a tag cloud so we can get a glance of what everyone likes to do. If there is something you like, say drinking beers and staring at people, click on the tag and it will reveal the person or you can opt to leave a note which the hotel will deliver to their room/bed.
There. Now stop staring at me.

One strategy is to be creepier than the creep. Do something like constantly rub your nipples. Then he will leave you alone. You also run the risk of arousing him.
Good luck.
