Not all of us are lucky enough to be homeowners. Apartment living can be a huge pain in the rear. Apartment living means compromising and being considerate of those around you. Sadly, this fact escapes about 99% of renters.

Oh believe me.  I'm well aware of how it is living in apartment dwellings.  My hubby was military and we always lived in Base Housing every where we lived.  (24 years before we bought this house).  So I am well aware of how that can be.  Kids, barking dogs, high heels on a bare floor above you, loud music.................it's barely tolerable.

But thank God, we lived in those places before people became so touchy about everything.  Now I can relax and just read about it.

Being a member of society means compromising, sadly that escapes a lot of the American public.

Society cannot and should not, ban everything that offends someones sensibilities, or that someone is allergic to. As has been pointed out, there are much worse things out there, we are exposed to day in and day out, even wood burning, which by the way gives off the same fumes if you will, as cigarette smoke.

Luck doesn't have a whole hell of a lot to do with it.

It's a choice, y'know.
