HERE I SIT, BROKIN HEARTED
CRANKED M'HOG BUT COULDN'T START IT
In a healthy society people have the critical thinking skills you lack.
It's rough. It's a great solution on its face, but people don't like to discuss its weaknesses. It's an issue that seems particularly bad in the United States since they only have two functional political parties. It's constantly "us vs them" for them, so anything that is seen as threatening their team results in backlash, even if it's constructive criticism. They're very much a "if you're not with us, you're against us" people. It's pretty sad.
That's also a great idea. We could offer him the likely cost of legal proceedings. Ugh. Never again.
I think you're being a Realistic Rhonda.
That's a really good point and I can't disagree. Worst case, our annoyance tactics fail and we have the court proceedings already in motion. You're totally right.
Thanks! It's annoying now but we'll laugh about it someday. I'm glad your squatters are gone, it gives me hope.
The problem is I am thinking and what you're saying makes no sense. It seems like you're also unable to explain this, so I suspect you didn't think about it yourself.
We're not in the US and, where we live, to file for eviction we must take this to court for a judge to validate the reason for eviction. Typical eviction times range between 3-9 months. We're going to try being such terrible flatmates that he decides to leave. No more free food or access to our toiletries. We'll be blasting our music all day. I'm growing several konjac plants which produce flowers that smell like rotting meat.
If this doesn't work, then we'll take the legal route.
Holy shit, are you me? We're going through the same thing. A not close friend of mine got evicted so his landlord could renovate his apartment and he has been living with us for six months now, for free. He stays in his room and plays video games all day, every day. He has no job. He subsists on dry cereal unless we feed him. He barely interacts with us. He doesn't do anything to help with chores, instead agreeing to assist and then just "forgetting". He sleeps from 6 am to 2 pm and is up all fucking night. We only know if he's awake because we can hear him playing games.
We told him two months ago that he needs to leave by now but he still has no job and no prospects. My wife, him, and I are in our fifties. We have a 55 year old child.
I think/hope you're missing a /s.
