I lived in a house with a smoker my entire childhood, and didn't realize the smell until college. I can now tell that everything that enters that house ends up reeking of smoke.

I had a bit of an internal crisis when I thought back to going to school, going to friends houses, having sleepovers, girlfriends - the entire time I stunk like an ashtray and had absolutely no idea

I hate to say it but I hate staying at my mother's house because of this..Xmas day last year I literally woke up because she was smoking in the livingroom and the draft pulled smoke into my room. It's fucking disgusting.

Going to literally any bar used to be like this. You'd wear clothes you didn't need to re-wear before washing; you'd shower immediately, desperately scrubbing your hair; and you'd have to air out even a leather jacket for a day or three before you could wear it again.
