In a smoker's household, everything reeks of the smell for years. And the porous nature of paper causes it to retain the smell too.

- silisili 1y agoWhat's worse is that something, I assume tar, actually seeps in everything. I was looking at a house on a particularly hot day once, and the bedroom walls were 'bleeding' some weird black substance. I informed the owner, who exasperatingly told me he's been scrubbing them down for weeks but it won't stop. Every time it got hot outside the walls would start again. Apparently his parents smoked heavily in that bedroom for decades.
- terribleperson 1y agoThe correct thing to do is to strip the walls and start over. Since no one actually wants to do that, smoke-covering paints are a thing you can buy.
