The smell of my neighbours' green is starting to piss me off.
I feel ashamed bringing guests in and watching them smirk, like "Neighbours with Cheech & Chong, eh?"

they must be toking a lot
you have to keep up a pretty steady stream of it for it travel far out of a house in my experience.

I live in a big house turned into four flats.
They are the first floor. They should close their living room door.

I read 'neighbours' as 'nephews'
and wondered why you hadn't confiscated it off him. You know, for his own good and that.

does your neighbour live in a single room with 3 other individuals?
one of them a male and the other two female?

RIS

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:34, Reply)

it's from Beyond the Valley of the Dolls
and is also sampled at the beginning of the Sublime version of The Toys classic song "Smoke Two Joints"

She was living in a single room with three other individuals. One of them was a male, and the other two, well the other two were females. God only knows what they were up to in there... and furthermore, Susan, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that all four of them habitually smoked marijuana cigarettes... reefers.

Great film.

I honestly don't think I would even recognise the smell if I did come across it.
I've never smoked it, and wasn't really cool enough to be offered it as a kid. I'd probably assume it was pot pourri or something.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:33, Reply)

I never smoked it til I was 20, and even then I mostly smoked stale resin.

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:34, Reply)

The worst of all the resins.

This worries me
I have noticed several times when I am sitting on my back doorstep enjoying a smoke, that my neighbours back door will suddenly slam shut. I guess I am making their kitchen stink. They've never mentioned anything, mind.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:39, Reply)

I wonder how much the neighbour can smell when I'm enjoying one outside the back door.
I don't think they care though, even if they can smell it.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:40, Reply)

I haven't mentioned it to my neighbours, but it stinks and it is annoying.
It's a sensitive subject, because despite how chilled someone might be in their attitude towards it, it's illegal and people get uncomfortable discussing it.
I, and maybe yours and tangedupinblue's neighbours would rather you used common sense and courtesy and contained the stench in your own bleeding house.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:45, Reply)

given the layout of my garden and theirs and the locations of their doors/windows etc.
I highly doubt they can even get a whiff of it.

Your situation is somewhat different though. Not shutting the door is just plain rude.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:51, Reply)

Their front door is closed
but the living room door where they're smoking it must be open, hence it comes out into their hall and under their front door.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:53, Reply)

in that case
I reiterate that they must exist in a constant thick fug of smoke for it to seep out that much!

It really does smell like someone's upset a skunk.

Stupid laws spoiling my fun
Smoking in the house is not an option as I've got a kid (plus it stinks).
I have started attempting common sense and courtesy by lurking at the bottom of the garden instead, but I'd prefer to be able to sit on the doorstep and listen to the radio at the same time.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 12:01, Reply)

Well tuuuufff titteh, get to the bottom of the garden.
The door slamming is the very british way of telling you they don't like it stinking up their kitchen.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 14 Jul 2011, 12:04, Reply)

Awwwwwwww don't want to *pouts*
They don't need to slam the door to show their Britishness - he has a rather fetching tattoo of a bulldog which takes up most of his back. Classy.

Fuck 'em
If you can't smoke outside now, then civil liberties in this country have reached an all time low.

Hack their phone to find out what's bugging them.

tangledupinblue is now going to smoke at the bottom of the garden.
