Someone posted the following dilemma on another RV forum the other day, and many of the answers were amusing. I've compiled and copied them here.
Question: This may sound silly, but I am currently camping and one neighbor cuts across my site while he is going and coming from his boat.
It is not that he is cutting through BUT when he does, he is within 2 feet of my camper door and within 4 feet of us sitting there talking.
I struck up a conversation with him and during this conversation asked if he would mind crossing the campsite a little further back from our camper. At that point he stormed off and said kiss my a..
Anybody have a simialr experience and if so were you able to resolve it? (A subsequent post revealed that the person continued to frequently cut through the site, close to the RV.)
Responses:
Mark it (the campsite) off with crime scene tape.
Start hanging your laundry on a strategically placed clothesline.
got a dog or cat with you? save some of their poo and sprinkle it liberally along his chosen path... but be sure to clean it up before you leave.
I had a guy that was doing that all the time so I started giving him a job when he came through- help me move my table, can you see the leak under my trailer, on your way drop this trash bag at the dumpster.......My wife couldn't keep a straight face and started ducking in when he cut through. Never stopped him but I had a blast!
Camo netting around the perimeter works great for me.
When someone continually does that, I just offer them a cold beer and ask if they are interested in gay animal porn. They seem to steer clear and never make eye contact with me again.
Sit outside with your pitbull. See if that deters him.
Next time he walks so close to your camper, stand completely naked at the screen door and whistle at him!
You weren't thinking fast enough. When he said 'kiss my a..' you should have said, 'Ok, drop your pants and bend over!' If he had the nerve, a good swift kick...
Have two orange traffic cones and 20 foot of yellow plastic chain, works for us
Next time he walks thru your site on the way to his boat, follow him to the boat and hop in. When he asks what you think you are doing, say "I thought we were sharing our things?" With a sad face
After a friendly conversation and the other party shows their 'stupid' I have no problem spraying them with my garden hose. "Oops..just cleaning MY site"
Put out a lawn sprinkler and water the grass.
Hire professional protesters to picket your neighbor(s) with signs that read "Don't Tread on Me!" and "Green Lives Matter!".
How about string some fishing line around your campsite neck and ankle high.
Drop a few laxatives down his waterfill.
The original poster subsequently commented, "The clothes line goes up today!"
