      Everyone can smell it, but no one cares except for your anxiety. Be chill and no one is going to think less of you.

        This is false if you have self righteous neighbors.

          Fuck those type of people. Not much worse than the people who think they’re better than everyone else, yet objectively are shit.

            There are still quite a lot of places in the US where either by State law, or the terms of your apartment rental contract, you can be punished for toking up in your own place.

        “Luckily,” I cut it with very bad tobacco, so it probably stinks more like stale cigarettes…

      Hey don’t panic.

      We don’t just know you smoked a bowl. We also know your family, your friends, and your third grade teacher and we’ve snitched on you.

      Odor elimination sprays help but your best bet is changing your shirt and washing your hands/face at least

      It’s not too strong after a little while, just give yourself time if you need to. But most people just don’t care as long as you don’t make it a big deal.

        Oh, always full shower and a change of clothes which have not had direct contact with the designated smoking area, yes. I also lean toward muskier/spicier scents, so that’s an extra layer of coverage.

        My main worry, honestly, is with the neighbors. I’m not going full bordello, no noise past 10PM, no IMAX at home, etc. Don’t even much like having people over. But as sp3ctr4l pointed out a few comments down, self-righteousness is unfortunately prevalent…
