The neighbours are at it every day and night. They fire up their first smoke around 7am, intermittently throughout the day and have the last one about 10’ish. I don’t know if it’s one of the parents or one of their kids, but it fills my bedroom and living room. My house must be like a sieve, it comes up the plug hole! Anyway, can I get secondary smoking issues.

High? Possibly. Health issues? I doubt it.

You only notice it more because of the smell. The actual harmful/enjoyable components of smoke will have long since dissipated before it enters your house and your lungs.

Think sewage works.... Can smell it a long way away but the smell isn't dangerous. Unless it causes you headaches which then affects your sleep which then makes you a less careful driver due to tiredness and then crash and die.

It has a very distinctive smell.

But ime it’s a crap ‘drug’

Nicotine is arguably better.

It is the smell of the loser. It would piss me off.

Agreed, I absolutely hate the smell of it. Whenever I go into an Edinburgh tenement common stairs I can smell it. I would rather live in a caravan than put up with that st.

It does. You can convince yourself it doesn't but it absolutely does.

Indeed. Usually the people who think it doesn't stink have jus got used to the smell and don't notice it.

I don't have a problem with a mild aroma of cannabis. The issue is, it never is mild and is usually (mostly) associated with the kind of people I wouldn't have around me.

A couple of my mates puff in their own time and usually go out into an open space to do so. It's quite funny getting them on the other end of a call whilst they're out there baked with Mary Jane.

Depends on the circumstances.
I used to smoke the stuff years ago but grew out of it - as you do.
However, I did audition for a Polish Rastafarian reggae band a few years back in some claustrophobic practice rooms in the middle of Edinburgh. They insisted on passing the chillum. I declined. At the end of the session I was definitely reeling (passively).
Didn't get the part.

Cannabis smoke isn't good for you, despite what some people might have you believe.

I live on a canal and often during the summer the opposite bank is populated by stoners fishing, the stuff absolutely stinks and it fills the boat, I smoke cigarettes and vape, but can't stand the smell of dope

It’s stinks. It’s. A horrible smell
As is vaping.
Nothing worse than walking behind one and the waft of strawberry is over powering

The romanticised view of weed from 70s California, fair enough

Now commonplace.
Your typical user, has some self diagnosed medical issue, uses it while waiting for his scooter to charge up, still at home living with a fat mum, no dad, plays bingo apps all day, absent teeth, on cloud trainers, Argos jewellery.
