Funny ways to tell someone to leave your house? Check out these humorous and creative ideas to politely hint that it’s time for your guests to go.As the proverb goes, a good guest is one who rarely gets in. And probably even a hospitable host will agree in his heart that it can be difficult to send away an annoying guest. If you say it directly, you will lose the friendship. It would seem that the person does not understand that he has “stayed too long”, or for some reason he deliberately ignores hints? Let’s figure it out.
If you are one of those who usually host parties, dinners and meals at home and you love it, you will be interested in what we are going to tell you. As much as we like getting together with friends, many times we organize everything so well and we are such good hosts that people find it hard to leave home. Then we can find ourselves in an embarrassing situation: having to politely ask them to leave. But don’t panic, there are polite ways to kick out guests.
Funny Ways to Tell Someone to Leave Your House.
Write directly that you are free from 12:00 to 18:00. It is possible that the person has really lost track of time (they do not have a permanent job or an unstable schedule), so the best option is to limit the time. And closer to the hour X, glancing at the clock, say, now let’s drink another cup, and then it will be time for me to get ready for an important meeting.
Clear food and drinks from the table.
Use the Dutch method: do not put the first, second and third courses on the table, but just limit yourself to drinks and snacks. When it is time to say goodbye, start demonstratively removing treats from the table. Say how quickly the day has flown by, how good it is that you met, but it is time to get ready for bed. An important point: do not sit down with the guest, so as not to encourage further conversation. Stand somewhere in the direction of the exit, as if showing that you are ready to see him off.
Use stop words
Remember that we often end a telephone conversation with the words “okay”, “well, let’s go”. Cut off the annoying guest’s attempt to continue the story with these words, as if showing “you’ll tell me later”, “then send me later on social networks”.
How are you going to get home?”
You can ask if the guest has taken care of a taxi to get home. If he has a pet, then ask if his pet is bored, if it is time to feed it or take it for a walk. Ask what time his girlfriend (or boyfriend, if we are talking about a friend) returns from work. Ask if she is worried that you are late. And then add that it is time for you to wrap up, make your bed, take a bath, etc.
Shall we take a walk?”
Try using this trick. Say that you need to take out the trash or go to the store to buy groceries, saying that tomorrow is a hard day. If that doesn’t help, then ask if the person has any important plans, hinting that it wouldn’t hurt you to go to bed early and get ready.
Say directly that it’s time to wrap things up, but in a humorous manner so that no one gets offended: “Okay, friends, it’s time to go, the neighbors called and asked for the chairs back”, “We’re having a great time! It’s a shame all the food is gone”, “So, whose apartment is this anyway? Let’s go home before the owners come back!”
Say it straight
Tell them honestly that you were glad to see them, but now it’s time to know when to stop. Don’t be afraid that the person will be offended. You should be wary if the person ignores your tiredness and abuses your hospitality.
Cleaning up will also be a good hint for your guests, you can also turn off the music, candles or lights in rooms that are not being used. And even suggest a future meeting or party in another place, with phrases like this, ‘what do you think if we organize… at the house of… or in such and such a bar or restaurant?
