Popular Post redwood1 Posted June 24, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) The people in the condo below me......Love to torch-up a bowl of weed every morning on the balcony ,or pretty much any time for that matter...... There is the smell of weed then cough cough cough. then more weed smell then cough cough...... It use to be ever so often now its real often.....Before a year ago I never smelled the smell of weed coming from their condo.... I dont smoke weed because it makes me lazy and foggy.....I dont even want to smell it........ But I dont have a choice now because my neighbor has turned into a weed addict...... I bet there are plenty more weed addicts in Thailand now... Edited June 24, 2023 by redwood1 4 1 1 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Fat is a type of crazy Posted June 24, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) That would annoy me too. Maybe a couple of fake exaggerated coughs as the smoke comes up or actually talk to them in a friendly manner and see if they don't mind staying inside. Or if it becomes too tiresome involve the Body Corporate. Edited June 24, 2023 by Fat is a type of crazy 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one sign, that says weed smokers should not smoke weed in the area where employees take their cigarette break, they should go to the back of the condo....I think they have a special area near the dumpster....

Communicate with your neighbours, rather than complaining here. I do just that. Neighbour at least put a fan on his balcony to try to blow the smoke away from me. Wasn’t particularly effective. Problem was that he smoked very many times throughout the day. He had to move in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should it be up to those who is annoyed by the smoking to do something? Utterly rubbish, it is a matter of power balance when those who do what they want, no matter what is right or not, but take their right to annoy other people. If you have the right neighbour it is just the matter of time, before he let you know personally how fed up he is. I have done so a few times, and problemed solved without further complications due to noise, and would had done the same about smoking. Not everybody is capable to handle such things by themselves, and have to suck it up, or find other solutions, close the windows and doors, put up a fan, or move. Not fair is it?

stoner Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 i fully support your cause. i bet it wouldn't cause a big problem if you actually went and said something to them. maybe bring over a pack of rolling papers or some bong cleaner as a peace offering. most stoners will be reasonable about this. i would try to accommodate your concern if you were my neighbor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko45k Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) Neighbours, what you going to do? Mine torment me with their barking dogs... not a day goes by.......... Have you got your balcony door open that the smell comes in? Buy a small metal kettle, and see if you can pour water onto a smoldering spiv that is close to the railings below... but first buy a Rambo outfit for when they come calling, big blades and bandoleer of bullets etc...... get ready for war.

If I understand this correctly, you are condoning a violent response to stoners doing their thing? While it may solve the immediate problem the legal repercussions for the assaulter could far outweigh the inconvenience of smelling weed on occasion. We live in a condo and smell weed all through the day, nothing that can be done, although yes some neighbors complain about it like it's the biggest issue ever.

We live in a condo and smell weed all through the day, nothing that can be done, although yes some neighbors complain about it like it's the biggest issue ever. I have physically been on neighbours doors for noise, and if they where sitting outside on the balcony, late nights and early morning smoking, choughing, laughing, or talking, I would have done the same. One of the few good things about cold season in Thailand, is to finely sleep without aircon and with open windows. It is just about being respectful and aknownledge we are living in the same building, and there is rules to be followed. Violence is not the solution, but most condomeniums have rules, and the best thing is to read the rules before you move in if you are easily disturbed by noise or smoke. Make sure the rules is clear from the management side in the contract. I have also made management to put on foot pads/floor protection on chairs and tables, so there is more options than just verbally and physically abuse the neighbours. Anyway, it helps to be politely convinsing, just saying and not just be the crazy neighbour. Before violence, it is better to change location, than end up in monkey house or hospital ????

Popular Post jippytum Posted June 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2023 it is illegal to smoke in the condo common area and withln eight metres of any condo entrance. It is however not illegal to smoke on your own balcony. The condo management can ban the smoking of canabis in the building if the smell is a big problem and the majority of owners agree. Many public places ban durian for objections to the smell likewise for canabis. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
