Need a little advice

[Scott]

I could use some help.

I've got some house guests staying with me. You may have noticed I'm not around a whole lot, this is the reason. They wee initially suppose to stay for two weeks only. Which was fine. But they've been in my house for over two months now. They don't really do anything. They sit around all day in their underwear, playing video games, ordering pizza and... well.. smoking pot. I don't even know where they get the money for the stuff. They never leave the house. I go to work and come home and they haven't moved an inch. There's just a bigger mess around them. Everyday is more pizza boxes and soda cans. I'm really fed up with it. So I could be a total ass and just yell at them to get out. but I don't want to do that. These are people I'm going to have to deal with in the future at some point. So it's imperative that I not burn that bridge completely.

So how do I ask them to leave?

That's a tough one Jolt, I would say that you just need to tell them that enough is enough and the 2 weeks is up, but they need to take off for a while and that you need your space.

If that doesn't work crush the video game consel with a sledge hammer :D

You could also explain that you "may" have some of your family coming soon to visit (would not be a lie) that you need to do a little work around the house beforehand, "thanks for coming, I've enjoyed your visit. If this is not YOUR family, you can be just a little more blunt and explain you "may" be going out of town, and will need to close the house up. If this is YOUR family, you either "get a job, be out of the house by 8:00 in the morning, because I'm locking it up till I come home."

Tell them that you have relatives (ones they don't know) and there coming from out of town in 2 weeks and your going to need the extra room. Then if they don't take the hint or put up a fuss just say "Get the *Blip* *Blip* out of my house"

That's what I would do :.

Afraid I can't help ya Jolt, cause if ya serious I wouldn't care if I had to deal with them at a later point, they would have to deal with me NOW....I would be telling them in no uncertain terms: Please leave and take ya pizza boxes with ya on the way out" after all it is your home and if they didn't understand nor accept that concept well they have no respect for nothing then and why bother with ingrates like that................

......................Anyways only if ya serious....which BTW I don't think you are L0L only because I don't think the man I see you as would allow such a thing to be going on anyways ;)

Polite but extremely firmly.

If that don't work reduce the politeness increase the firmness.

If that dont work tell them bluntly to go NOW.

If that dont work then you've got to evict forcibly. Sacrifice the future for current peace of mind. Thry're not worth it.

Obviously I don't know the whole story but you have to be firm. Agree a date to start with, hope they stick to it.

Good Luck!

Then set Silky on them! :)

[Scott]

Okay... so I finally turned to them and said....

"look mom, dad, you're gunna have to leave."

pmsl, I was about to tell how how I got rid of a house guest a while ago, but I had an excuse at the time - I was pregnant and extremely moody... not that that would have helped you mind.

Yup, you can choose your friends but you can't choose your family ;)

[D Rock]

sweet your parents play videogames!!! haha

It's the pot smoking part that fascinated me...

[Scott]

it's the underwear part that just makes me shudder. :D

[1cowabunga]

hmm.. I'm guessing the pizza must be the delite, low carb stuff and that video game is wheel of fortune? that's enough reason to kick them out right there. :)

[Jaygre]

That's two, Jolt - You are really slick at these. Hm. What about the boy who cried wolf? :) And I was almost feeling sorry for you :undies:

[burndog]

tell them to just shove off, cause the burndog's moving in...they can leave the joystick.

[e2dmfj]

You could always take some of their pot and then throw the rest in a bag out the door. When they go to retrieve it you shut the door and lock it. Or you just tell them that you need them to leave.. No hard feelings but you need your space.

*a little late*
When my in-laws stay a little longer than foreseen, I tell them I'm renovating and that I need help stripping the paint off the mouldings which will then need to be sanded, cleaned and stained.
If that doesn't get a couple of lazy, pot-smoking, video-game playing, pizza-eating, underwear-sitting, pot smoking, pizza-eating, loafers out of your house nothing will.
:smoke:

I reccommend itching powder in the underwear - no you don't need to touch it - just sprinkle on when they sleep. Then tell them you have been infested with something awful.

[QUOTE=flondo]I reccommend itching powder in the underwear[/QUOTE]

I hope that after that they wont just remove the underwear :P

First: prepare a huge "pot pizza" for everyone, but don't eat any for yourself...
Second: Tell them you won the powerball,... then, fake falling asleep on the table with the ticket in your hand...

pouf ! they're gone....
