    I only ever smell it outside anymore, but I walk away fanning the air in front of my face. It’s so nasty.

      Can always tell the people who smoke in their cars.

      Their cloths are saturated in it and they’re noseblind to it. I’m in Healthcare and you get off an elevator and can tell when the Caregiver who smokes was on the elevator before you.

      NICE

      Always am heavily cognizant since I smoke weed to not be like the ciggy cunts. Would want someone to tell me.

        Isn’t weed the same way? I can always smell it on people who smoke it. It might not be quite as ‘sticky’ as cigarette smoke?, but I can still smell it on people’s clothes until they are washed, or in their house or car.

          Yeah weeds pretty much the same, the tar from the smoke sticks to everything.

          I think the scent chemicals just break down faster.

          Please tell someone. Dunno bout them but I’d appreciate being told. Feel like an ass otherwise.

          Still be the case of course lol

          Brush teeth if going anywhere before. Never smoke around others. I breath test, cloths test.

          Some family smoke cigarettes fairly heavily and I’ve never smelled it on them. Despite living in the same home. They are conscious of others with their habit. I don’t know what the people who reek do. Maybe they hotbox the actual smoke.

            Yeah if you reek of smoke that bad you’re probably smoking in confined spaces e.g. inside your house, car, etc. Clothes start being impregnated again as soon as they’re out of the wash coz the whole house is continually full of smoke. Folks that smoke “the modern way” (only outside, etc) will probably only smell when coming back from a smoke for a bit, or maybe the breath/fingertips up close.

        The worst is when someone opens their purse or wallet to hand you their health card and a wave of smoke comes out with it.
