How to Get Rid of Unexpected Guests - Tips & Advice

[Moonbear]

Well, someone showing up unannounced and uninvited is pretty rude, and then to stay around late is even ruder. No reason you can't start yawning loudly and say, "Well, I need to get up early for work in the morning..." and if the guest doesn't immediately take the hint and get up and head for the door, continue on with, "I'm so sorry to have to cut our visit so short, perhaps you could call and we could get together again some night that's more convenient for both of us." And at that, get up and hug your friend good-bye and start walking to the front door. That both let's them know it's time to leave and that next time they should call first to make sure you're free.

What do you do about weekends?

No, it's not good. I'm afraid they may want to come in again!

Yeah, he would say you could continue sleeping late in the morning everyday till you get another job!

Eat lots of curry and diced carrots and then drink a glassful of salty water. That way you can time a projectile vomit into whoever you wish to leave :)

All you have to do is start scratching your self madly, and tell your guests
that it is not really contagious.

You could start barking and then start sniffing them suggestively?

Holiding a big knive when opening the door and answering them??

 

[Daminc]

Have the knife covered in tomato sauce and cover your face in red food colouring dye

Get a trombone and play Chopsticks for them - repeatedly. Position yourself so that you hit them with the slide. If there's a little kid around, give them a tambourine and tell them to play along.

I remember a guy that worked for my first husband would drop by our house at night unannounced, with his wife. We had nothing in common with these people and didn't particularly like them. After the first few uninvited drop ins, we became progressively more curt until they finally got the message that it wasn't ok.

How can some people be so brain dead?

well I don't have a problem saying exactly what I think and I don't think anyone else should..

there are people and types of characters that simply don't mix no matter what the conditions are - why bother trying to mold those types together - just cut the crap and move on

You were lucky. Some people know that you don't like them at all but they still continue coming to your home whenever they like!

Wait, start telling them boring as hell stories about vacations as a kid or something (make them boring if you must) and make sure you keep going and going and going. That'll make em cry.

Ooh ooh ooh ooh, that's how we used to get rid of uninvited guests in a hurry...slide shows of vacation photos! Only the insane stuck around for those. Nowadays, you can pull out a wedding video (perhaps you should surprise another friend with a sudden interest in their wedding video and ask if you can borrow it to watch again, and play that when the unwanted guest appears...if having to sit through a wedding video of someone they don't even know doesn't scare them off, then I'm afraid they are clincally insane and nothing will work. )
