I have a shitty roommate. I'll go into it more if anyone asks, but suffice to say this guy is pretty much fucking bonkers.

He gets free food from a charity but lets it rot because he doesn't actually want it and neither do I or my second roommate. He called the landlord a homophobe, despite the fact that the landlord was raised by a gay man. Has a suitable job but pays rent on time maybe 1/3 of the time. We're expected to pay the rent all at once, so the late fee applies to all of us.

The landlord decided, obviously, not to renew his lease. But he's still staying. He just won't leave. The landlord doesn't want to pay 600 dollars in court costs to get him arrested for trespassing, and asked me to get rid of him before he had too. He heavily implied moving us to a more expensive unit if he has to deal with it himself.

My other roommate (whose bright idea it was to let this psycho move in) came up with the genius plan of tricking him into moving out by pretending to move out ourselves. I explained that no, that would not work because he will just stay there under the assumption that he was entitled to his room regardless of anything else in the whole world.

I've considered threatening to call the cops and ruin his (unfounded) hopes of getting into law school, and physical intimidation. The first option is more likely to work because I'm a skelly boy. A tall, broad shouldered skelly boy, but a skelly boy none the less.

Any help you could provide would be extremely appreciated. Also of note: this guy has gotten extremely confrontational in the past, but I could take him in a fight. He would likely be homeless for at least a while after I kick him out.
