burning wood bothersome?

[Anonymous]

Save for the comment about affluence, I don’t get the vitriolic responses. From personal experience, also in an affluent, dense-ish neighborhood, neighbors are truly thoughtless of one another and clueless as to how their boorish activities and behavior affect those in adjacent/nearby properties. The OP has every right to be bothered by the odor.

If it continues, you could always stalk them to New York, stay at a hostel under a fake name, shoot them in cold blood, and escape on an e-bike. That's apparently ok now.

Only if the neighbor is denying life-saving healthcare to millions of people to enrich themselves 🙏

OP hasn't answered if it's chimney smoke or fire pit smoke. That makes a difference.

It is not boorish to have a fire in your own fireplace. My god.

In our case (not OP) it is chimney because I can smell the waxy chemical smell when they use firelogs. Houses are 16 feet apart. Arlington.
It's obnoxious but what can you do. In summer it's burning chicken fat on their BBQ.

I don’t mind the smell, but I feel bad for the people in the house. That’s pretty unhealthy for them, especially kids. Lots of ear infections and other issues.

Unless this is somehow prohibited, which I doubt it is, there is nothing you can do, OP. Learn to live with the smell.

Ugh they aren’t burning real wood but those lazy logs by duraflame. Yeah those stink and give you cancer.

You'll never be a good Karen with that attitude.

That's right. Just like the neighbor has every right to have a fire every night.

Because there’s always going to be a high density of entitled that will complain about every g******d thing under the sun.

Please stay in the ‘burbs. Don’t move out any further than that. Otherwise you’ll be complaining about the smells from my horses, noise from farm equipment, dust from plowing, mowing and harvesting, gunfire, open burning, livestock noise and everything else people like you complain about as soon as you move to “horse country”. We got flooded with noobs during the pandemic and the b***hing was endless.

Not sure why I liked this post so much, but I would love to hear more about your life, PP!

We use our outdoor firepit in the suburbs, and so do our neneighbors. Take a shower, and get over yourself
