      Because smoke inside gets in the walls, curtains, carpets, pets, kids, visitors, etc.

      That ain’t kind. Be kind.

      Smoking on the balcony can be annoying to the neighbours, but usually it won’t be a dangerous concentration for the neighbours. Just annoying.

        Then do neither and instead go outside on a walk where you don’t annoy people for very long.

        Counter point: the smoker closes his door, but the neighbor might have their window open. Especially in summer months this can be really annoying having smoking neighbors.

          So annoying that… you don’t buy a fan?

          What a pickle. Those poor people! If only they knew how to use a fan.

            A fan doesn’t cool your apartment or improves the air quality. Maybe you should smoke less, it seems to degrade your brain functions.

                A fan moves air. If anything, the energy needed to move it would slightly warm it even (but that can be ignored). How should it improve air quality? It can neither turn CO2 into O2 nor can it get rid of smells nor can it reduce humidity. It moves air around. Nothing more.

      Calling the cops for this is such an asshole move though. Cops here would probably just laugh at you on the phone if you called them for that

        It’s fake. Cops don’t automatically search a home because a random citizen told them there was weed there. And yes, almost every police force would blow off such a call.
