Your poor dog. If nothing else, you owe it to your dog not to smoke at home. You have a choice whether or not to destroy your lungs but your dog doesn't. I personally think the no-smoking-in-the-house policy is a blessing in disguise for both you and your dog.

Oh please, shut up! It takes years to destroy our lungs, but not everyone smokes that dies of lung cancer.
There is still no evidence that smoking causes lung cancer.

I understand where you are coming from. I only, ever smoked in my bathroom. Door closed, fan on. At the end of the day, however, smoking is not illegal. Yet Pot is. Go figure.

I know the damage ciggarette smoking can do. I also use Natives, which diminishes the crap in the others. I also use an e cig to minimize as much as I can....


I am a 36 yr old disabled woman. I have limited use of my arms and legs because of a birth defect. I live on my own, with my dog, Cyrus, Service Dog Extraordinaire....I do not mind the limitations I was born with, I embrace them. As I see it- I have two choices. 1. Be angry (useless & wasteful of my energy & abilities) or 2. Understand that I am given a unique perspective. My intellect affords me the ability, through art to express my sorrows, my joys, struggles & achievements. I'm an accomplished artist who happens to paint with her mouth.

I do live on "The System", Ssi Medicaid and medicaire to survive... I understand, to many of you, that am a mere parasite. Considering the abuses that do occur within the system, I can see why many feel that way. The system is broken (as most know) but not by those that need it most. And WE are in fact in the MAJORITY, not the loud, over focused MINORITY portrayed by the msn to scare the he** out of the now struggling poor & middle class.


Did you know that under HUD law you can not work from home??

Did you know that if you earn more than (in Nj) you cannot earn more than $750 a month without losing EVERYTHING? If I attempt to earn more, I literally lose the right (through home health aid assistance) the right to to PEE & EAT???

I'm not at all saying I'm 'entitled' to those things. I am saying I AM ENTITLED by the Constitution to EARN whatever living I can.

I'm not afraid of work. I am not afraid to LIVE.

I am, however, &^$%#@&^*!!!! FURIOUS, that after being told-

Don't try
Don't work
Don't participate in the world...please watch TV & stay out of our way

Oh, & don't smoke in your home, which you pay for.....

Holy crap-I think that someone here may have stumbled on to something!
Has ANYONE ever had a house-pet, dog, cat-whatever, die from Lung-cancer? I didn't think so!
HA!
btw, I think that OP said that they use an e-cig. Electronic. And yes they take some manipulations to use. But I've seen the manufacturer's claim that "no-smoking"-rules do not cover them because they are vapor, not smoke. So unless the lease says e-cigs in particular, OP may be ok to continue using them inside.

Not exactly hon. You can work and earn as much as you can, but if you earn MORE than 750, you lose some of your free government bennies is more like it?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1431344


And I as a tax payer do not think I sould have to pay for your cigs(I am a smoker).

So no I do not have a problem with the "no smoking" when it comes to HUD housing.

I work rent and pay taxes.

When you rent then smoke in the apt it is the tax payer that has to have the apt deep cleaned and repainted not you.

I do not have a problem with my tax money going to assist you due to your limited mobility.

I do have a problem with you squandering that money that I work so hard for.

Look..I know "they" want to tell us what to do in our own homes..but seriously..I wouldnt sweat it unless they install cameras..(hmmm that could be next)

Smoking outside is probably the best, anyway..keeps your walls from turning yellow..(unless they're painted yellow anyway..lol)

No matter what they say..you are still Queen over your castle, just dont let em drag you down.

I COMPLETELY understand your position. I, once a week, clean the walls of my bathroom, removing the smell & nicotine from my walls....AND pay for the repainting.

they don't allow smoking in most apartments in my area. or any areas around it. this is not government housing.

it's city ordinance.

most smokers i know burn incense all the time and smoke in their apts. anyway.

and if they get a complaint they just say 'i don't smoke'. i burn incense when i do rituals though. maybe that is what you are smelling.

the wiccan/witchy poo card works every time.

I do voice overs, online, paid into anonymous offshore bank acct. Where did I make the money? WHere am I? Where do I live? Nobody knows. It's all in cyberspace....

I've probably given away my location and everything on this govt website. Hopefully, I'm too small time and too far away for them to bother about me. I fucking hope.

This is how our government enforces poverty. They hold your housing, food, and healthcare over your head. If you make a penny more than they allow, then you lose everything.

If you have a disability, then you have almost no hope of ever leaving the system. They make sure of that.

Your own home? You have a title, you rent, you live in gov. housing which?
I rent houses and don't allow smoking the smell permeates everything so if you rent I can understand the restriction.

But tax payers are still paying for your cigs and the paint and soap you are using to clean with.

Why not just quit smoking.

BTW I ask myself that every day.

A struggling smoker too, eh? If it means anything to you, I'm down to 4 a day. Most times I trade smokes for services, like finding resources, or info, or art...so, no worries....I'm not a bottom feeder as you may assume. Also, I often jokingly say they should have a buddy system tax payer system....this way you choose who you donate too. :p

But that still leaves the Fed Reserve...defeating the whole argument anyway, yes?

All I can say, Doll, is you are one helluva woman!

Im proud to call you sister ;)

Look..I know "they" want to tell us what to do in our own homes..but seriously..I wouldnt sweat it unless they install cameras..(hmmm that could be next)

Smoking outside is probably the best, anyway..keeps your walls from turning yellow..(unless they're painted yellow anyway..lol)

No matter what they say..you are still Queen over your castle, just dont let em drag you down.

I wish you all the best in life..Id love to see some of your paintings!!!

I have to say..I was touched by your paintings..they have such a soul-grabbing element about them. Somewhat dark, but not terrible.

Im glad to have met you :)

This is how our government enforces poverty. They hold your housing, food, and healthcare over your head. If you make a penny more than they allow, then you lose everything.

If you have a disability, then you have almost no hope of ever leaving the system. They make sure of that.
