You really don't,
Not everyone likes gaming. You can do different things with different friends.
More importantly, if this person makes the game worse for the other players, you owe it to them to NOT include this person.
No one has the right to have fun at the expense of the other people at the table.
doesnt sound like the guy doesnt wanna play, just sounds like hes not fully invested. and besides, the least he can do is give everyone a laugh at his expense.
If you're advocating killing the character of the player - don't try to solve out of game problems with in game solutions, it doesn't work and will just cause more problems.
scenario 1: the guy gets ticked off and leaves and then a few days later youre all back at it shootin the naughty word on a friday night with some drinks laughing about the whole thing (thats how my friends work, if friends cant take shots at each other then wtf are you friends for?)
scenario 2: the guy realizes that the DM is upset enough to kill his character off for not paying attention and taking the game seriously enough and decides to see the error of his ways. if the player cant appreciate how much time and effort goes into DM'ing then they have no right to get upset when they get killed off because they missed something because they were on tik-tok....
