Do you ever get so annoyed with someone that you'd do anything to get them to back off? Well, here's an easy way how to do that exact thing.

  1. Maintain eye contact for uncomfortably long periods without moving your eyes away from theirs. Do it in weird positions, like from the side, or peeking under your elbow to stare at the person behind you. Make them feel like you're mad at them or there is something wrong with them like messy hair or they have food on their face.
  2. Angle your body so that your feet and shoulders are pointed directly towards the person you are focusing on creeping out.

  3. Like, "Oh, yeah. My feet are freaking stinky when I get home. Yeah, want to smell?", or "Wanna smell my breath?" while opening your mouth widely and looking at them. Talk about odd topics, like, Making mini golf windmills is a hobby of mine! You should try it sometime. It makes you look better.
  4. If they still haven't backed off, suddenly become moody, upset, or even angry at their lack of investment in the conversation. Like, "I hate myself and you probably hate me, too. I bet you're just trying to be "nice" to me." using annoying air quotes, "Everyone lies to me. What are you lying to me about?" or other questions that are impossible to answer.
  5. Ape everything that they do until it becomes frustrating. Exaggerate their facial and body movements. Mimic their voice for emphasis. "-snort- I just got the new World of Warcraft game. I only played for like 18 hours straight, so I'm only level 79 so far. -snort-" or "-pushes glasses up- Yeah, I have 9 skillcapes. I only spent like 80 mil on Construction, and 20 mil on Magic. I'm so pro, -nerd laugh-" Let them know how ridiculous they seem to you.
  6. If you've just met the person, you can say something like, "That Facebook post about (something weird like their mom's pregnancy) was so cool!" Make sure that the post was from a long time ago. This is guaranteed to scare them off.

  • Question
    Is there anything special I could do with my face, like looking at the person I want to creep out with crossed eyes or something like that?
    Community Answer
    Normally what I do is tilt my head downward so that there's a shadow over my eyes, and either smile or make wide eyes (not too wide, just wide enough so that you look a little dead inside).
  • Question
    Can I creep people out by staring at them and drooling?
    Community Answer
    Yes, that would probably creep people out.
  • Question
    Are there more severe ways to creep people out that you can suggest?
    Community Answer
    These might work: 1. Track and stare with your eyes directly at their face in a straight posture, kind of like a tiger stalking its prey, except you want to look as emotionless as possible. 2. Be the first one to like or dislike or watch their social media content, I know many people who hate this and block the person doing it. 3. This takes dedication, but whenever you see the person, walk up to them and say a phrase that has no meaning, then jog - don't run or walk - away. If you say the exact same phrase every time, then they will definitely find you weird.

      Warnings

      • Do not follow these steps if you wish to be around your target any time in the future.
      • If they tell you to leave them alone, it likely means they don't want to be around you. Follow their directions and avoid them . Continuing to creep someone out is a form of stalking, which may be illegal in your community.
      • You may get slapped, punched or kicked.
      • You will likely be labeled by those around you as a creeper, especially by those who have a positive attitude toward your target. You may want to let others know your intent when your target is not around before following these steps. However, they may or may not approve of your actions.
      • Don't go too far, especially if you are making that person really uncomfortable. Stalking is against the law. You can scare or creep them out a bit, just don't go overboard with it.
