I work at a summer camp. During one of the camp cheers, I accidentally slapped my male coworkers ass while waving my hands around. He now makes lewd comments around me, and I feel really uncomfortable. How do I address this?

Report him to your supervisor. He's made it a sexual harassment issue at this point. It doesn't matter that it's summer camp -- it's still a job and he's acting unprofessional.

Also, what sort of mouth-breathing tool takes a slap on the ass as an invitation to sexually harass his coworker? "She accidentally grazed my butt! That means she totally wants me." Does he think he's in a '80s summer camp movie?

Even if you did grab his ass in a flirtatious way, that doesn't excuse his comments. Nothing does: he's a creep who is making your work environment uncomfortable. Take him aside and let him know that the whole butt-slapping thing was an accident, and if he doesn't stop with the comments you'll go to your boss. Don't let this douchenozzle ruin your summer. 

Do you have archery at this camp? The next time he says something to you, "accidentally" shoot him in the foot with an arrow. Or suggest that he join you for a canoe ride on the lake and then "accidentally" whack him with the paddle while trying to steer. Oh, I got another one: when roasting marshmallows, "accidentally" let the flaming marshmallow fly in his direction. He'll get the idea right quick.

Flying flaming marshmallows! The staple of 80's summer camp movies. :)

Or just tell him that the ass slap was just a freebie, but that you don't go for asses who go the first name of "Jack." As in, Jack Ass. And if he doesn't cut it out, you'll plant your foot up there next.

I would say that the first thing to do would be to tell him to stop. If you don't express your displeasure in his comments you can't really expect him to stop something he thinks you started. If you have said something to him and he hasn't stopped then report him.

Or drop kick him.
