I'll make this short;

Okay. Maybe not.

Our "landlord" is selling the house. 4 apartments, blabla. Realtors have been coming over left and right to show Joisey! trash this dump. Yay. :(

Anyway, we've been living here for nearly 8 years. The landlord has done SQUAT in order to prepare for the selling of the house let alone during the time of his occupancy. So now, NOW there's this bearded man walking about the yard (or lack thereof). My mom calls the landlord, the landlord says "Oh, he's living on my side. The guy's well-known in this area and works for several of the judges. He's going to mow the lawn and a few other things. So-and-so's harmless. He just has a bit of a drinking problem." :eek:

Well TODAY, I was home, naked and watching television, when I hear BANGBANGBANG on the door. So I throw on some clothes, that whole bit, and the guy's, like, staggering around on our porch mumbling shit to himself. I asked him if he was all right when he just sat there and fell asleep. :confused:


We're scared. I mean, not the fact he's a drunk in general, but.. What if he smokes? What if he falls asleep with a cigarette and Miller Light in hand? What if he's not a hobo-ish man at all and has cameras about our apartment and is watching me rub furry kittens all over my bare flesh?!

We'd like to call someone about this "problem", but we have several "problems" with our landlord as is. We can't afford to get kicked out.

Have a nice day.

I wonder why do you mention that you were naked while you were at home? Can people see into your house?

I would take normal precautions to keep the house secure, blinds pulled if I'm going to walk around naked.

I wouldn't build scenarios about what he's going to do, what he's capable of doing. Plenty of people who seem to function normally are drunks/addicts and other things, and you run just as much of a risk with them falling asleep while smoking as you do with this guy. Probably more so. I would just be mindful not to do anything to taunt him (or anyone, really) and not to put myself in a risky situation in general.

You can easily call the non-emergency police phone number and report the guy. It's public intoxication, if nothing else. And aybe the court will ake hi get treatment, which could be a win-win.

Oh man the land lord seems like a real douche. Why did he move out so quickly and where is he now? Jesus what a creep.
