And if you just told him straightforward that you're not interested in working with him, and don't want to hear about all these aborted projects anymore?
I DO want a part in the project. You don't understand, I basically quit my job with the intention of doing this seriously. Well, okay it wasn't like THAT, I quit my job because it sucked and I couldn't stand it any longer, but I had a slight hope that I could do this instead. Now it seems it's not happening. The guy's just extremely lazy. I'm not being hard on him either, I know what happens. He gets a slight thunderbolt of inspiration every now and then, but he can't MAINTAIN it. So somedays he'll be like. "Hey, man. I got the script for one of the skits started." So I reply "Cool, let me know when you're gonna film and what I have to do." Then I'll never hear about it until a month afterwards.

I wholeheartedly agree. This guy just isn't committed. Even if we did start things, he doesn't have the leadership qualities needed for such a thing. He's not organized enough, and I have a slight feeling it would fall apart soon after. I don't work with other people as a general rule of thumb. I just had so many bad experiences with it. People sometimes wouldn't hold up their responsibility in the project, other times they'd be late, and rarely it would get completed but it wouldn't meet my standards. Why let someone else do something if you can do it better? I believe that, unless it's something you absolutely cannot do and the other person is a professional at it.
