    Shrug your shoulders say meh and walk away. why give them an audience or stoop to their level. It's more annoying for them if they get no reaction

    I let 'em hate. IMO, the less you show it bothers you, the more pissed of they get. It then becomes a big problem for them to deal with and not you.

    I hug them until it gets really awkward...then smell them

    You need to add in licking their face.

    Depends on who it is.
    Someone I don't know? Roll my eyes and walk away.
    Someone I have to deal with like family? I'll knock the down a peg or two.

    It is a term made up in the hip hop genre basically that describes someone who is jealous of what you got so they declare u as their enemy

    Context is really important. If it's someone on an online community, that's one thing. If it's a real life, face to face issue, that could get a bit more complicated.

    Online, I'l usually just ignore troublesome people until they go away, or a moderator handle the situation. Once or twice I'd just repeatedly tell them to please not cry/don't sob/etc...they went away after a few lol.

    It isn't worth getting worked up over.

    Two things

    What other people think of me is none of my business.

    In my younger days, I got even with a couple of people for imagined infractions by collecting magazine subscription cards and filling them all out in their name. One guy I probably mailed in 200 different magazines. The postman must have needed a hand truck. :-)
