I really, really hate non-smokers

[notyoueither]

Hey all. I recently moved to Toronto and into an apartment in a rather large complex. It's nice and all, but it seems like the entire area is full of non-smokers and the place reeks of cheap air fresheners, fake pine, and potpourri. It really sucks.

Additionally, there's this really annoying hum at all hours. I have very sensitive hearing, and I think it is coming from thousands of those cheap air purifiers. I can't go into a hardware store without hearing these things. If I go near the display section with the air purifiers it gets much worse, so I am sure that is where the annoying hum is coming from. It interferes with my practice with my sax and jazz keyboards.

On top of all that, I can't walk from my car to the door-way without having to dodge pudgy, middle-aged, marathon running wannabes. They're even in the hallways, bouncing up and down while warming up, like some sort of lunatic bunnies.

I complained to the landlords, but they're a large organisation staffed by people who do not care. They tell me there is no regulation against air-fresheners, air-purifiers, or good health. I think their should be, but whatever.

So I decided to exact some measure of revenge. I've hooked up a rubber hose to the ventilation system. Now as I sit inside and watch hockey, football, curling, and darts like any normal person would do, I exhale into the hose after every satisfying puff. I figure I'm probably pissing on the potpourri of at least 3 floors. I'm trying to figure out how to expand the coverage, but I think I'll need some reinforcements for smoke generation so I might invite the local chapter of a smoker's rights group over for an open bar during the next Oilers game.

Amen!

I find the air fresheners far more annoying (and headache inducing) then smoke.

[SlowwHand]

Attaboy! Both of you.

Air "freshners" are awful, they just pollute the air.

Air purifiers are completely noiseless and odourless, and work awesome for smoke smells.

[Asher]

Amen!

You are easily the most headache-inducing substance known to man.

[Ben Kenobi]

That's clearly not true. I'd have immunity to air fresheners.

Typical... you are the FIRST to make it personal. Enough. Discuss the topic and stop with the personal crap.

Have I gone crazy or is this thread literally prefixed with "PERSONAL" and directed at me?

[ZEE]

actually, i sympathize with NYE's situation and wish him all the best in dealing with it

HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA... a Troll whining about somebody trolling him. Deal with it. But stop with the personal insults. Somebody starting a thread complaining about non smokers is not a personal insult.
Your comments are.

And if you decide you want to retaliate with more threads... you will be restricted.

Non smokers are incredibly intolerant about cigarette smell. Like it smells a little bit and they're complaining you poisoned the whole neighborhood.

Once I was smoking outside on the balcony and the neighbor complained that the smell went into his house through the window (one floor up).

I'm not whining or complaining. It's you that waltzed in here with a cigarette up your ass and started ruining everyone's fun. Seriously.

[Ming]

Gee... you start with the personal insults, and I'm runing EVERYONE's fun... yeah right.
Chill or be chilled.

He's a pathological liar. I can say that, because he doesn't post here.

Are you serious?

See, this is precisely the problem. You've no concept how awful you are.

The smell is not a little bit. It might be a little bit to you as your nose has acclimatized to it over years of poor decisions, but I assure you, to most other people it is strong, vile, and disgusting -- not to mention poisonous.

There's tons of *******s around here that smoke on their balcony. As soon as some ******* starts doing it, you can hear the slamming of sliding doors and windows from the apartments nearby as everyone has to close their windows unless they want their apartments to smell like cigarettes. And here's a newsflash -- to most of us, that's nauseating!

But you have every right to smoke on your balcony. But don't you dare mock people who don't like what you're doing. What you're doing is insanely stupid, to say the least, and it also pisses everyone off around you.

Even having to stand next to someone who was just smoking in an elevator is ****ing awful...disgusting.
