I had a friend who used to treat loud and unruly people with a spray of the most pungent cologne she could find. Sometimes they would ask why she did it. She would reply, “You are offending my eyes and ears so I thought you wouldn’t mind if i offended your nose.” It worked well for her.

Mostly I ignore them. I've stayed in a few chain hotels that encourage you to mingle in the brightly decorated lobby (Tru and some Hampton), but man, if you order a few pizzas for dinner for your whole group, don't eat them in the lobby. If there's a breakfast nook with tables and chairs, OK, but not on the sofas, taking over the whole place and making it smell of pepperoni. There's a lot of selfishness in society in general today, and these are just some examples of it.
