No but I don't live in Anaheim either.
You live in my rear view mirror?:sl
I see no reason why compromise can't be reached. I too, live in an apartment complex, and my neighbors are avid cigarette smokers, however they loathe my cigar smoke for some reason. I hate the piles of butts they leave on the ground outside of their apt on the lawn and sidewalk.
So I made a courtesy call one day and spoke frankly with them. We reached an agreement, they bought a sand bucket and use it, I make a point to try and keep my smoking away from them while they are outside, and we agreed that first one out has fist call on location. Almost a year later, we still hold to this agreement very well.
People who want to be obstinate and childish about things probably won't change, but if you can stand up and say "Hey, I tried to work it out and reach a compromise, but they were unreasonable anyway" then you can simply ignore them and go about life as normal. You have moral high ground, and they're not willing to compromise you can't change that, but you can tell the landlord that you've tried to reach an agreement and it was to no avail.
I agree with one thing...praise down South...complaining about smoke is akin to saying you're anti-confederate, and won't make you many friends
You're kidding. You actually talk to your, *gulp* neighbors???
Not me, man. If I'm doing something I get the feeling they don't like, I don't have the courage to broach the subject. Instead I continue the activity they loathe with an angsty petulance and try to relieve my guilty conscious with little acts of spiteful mischief. Then I puff out my chest, get on the internet and prattle on about my rights. I'm the only one in this world that matters and to hell with anyone that stands in my way of pleasure.
I'm 10 years old.

:tpd: I like you too!
I love the use of "angsty petulance" and especially "prattle"
Not sure how things work in FL but out here in socal if you bring something up and someone doesnt like it you get shot....Hopefully you live from the gun shots and hopefully they didnt kill your family...Neighbors dont talk to each other out here...enough said
and yes Ill preach about my gun rights on the internet and anywhere I go as much as I want...Im proud to be apart of the few californians that are standing up for their gun rights and Im a proud NRA member
Dude, you live in Anacrime, your description is no joke. I dealt with the same problems when I lived in Bellflower, I was way too close to Compton.
agreed they are prob waiting for an invite...:ss....
Yeah I know...the apartments are built so close together....You hear everything and smell everything....I thought everyone knew that
I suppose if they shoot you for talking to them your really in for some trouble if you get smoke in their curtains.
I don't know how this thread got to be about guns so i'm just goiing to back out slowly to a place were I can talk about cigars...

This thread reminds me of this one time I was trying to catch flies...
I set out a huge dish of vinegar, and waited for them to swarm on in.
Nothing.
Well, a couple of hours later, I set out a dish of honey... I caught many more flies with the second dish.
Daresay it's easier to catch flies with honey than with vinegar.
Go figure....
Wait... what was I talking about?

I was thinking of this post last night.
I was sitting on my back deck reading a book, smoking a cigar, when my neighbors wife comes out. She is getting ready to grill, looks over and says "I thought I smelled your cigar,I really like the smell", in a totally non sarcastic way. I was shocked! Her husband tells me he doesn't like the smell but will partake in one every so often. :tu
Im glad I have cool neighbors!:chk
