If you are shooting a small subject with a macro setup and all of a sudden, another "friendly" photographer whom you do not know just position his/her lens in front of your lens, thereby blocking your view, what would you do? What would be a good way of presenting your displeasure with such "friendly" behavior?

Nicely and politely tell him that he is blocking you and that after you have taken your shot you will go for another shot.

Erm... if I am doing macro on a SMALL subject and he STILL CAN SQUEEZE in between it and my lens, I'll just do a macro of him :D

Most folks wouldn't be that stupid, if they were they'd get told to "oi mate eff off'
 

Act blur and say out loud for all to hear: 'OH MY GOD, I did not know that there is such a thing as a transparent lens!? How much did u pay for it?'

I don't think "stupid" is the word. It's a matter of courtesy.
