I was at a Christmas party and talking about my mom's smoking with a doctor. She said "have you heard about thirdhand smoke?".....

My in-laws smoked and I saw
My in-laws smoked and I saw first hand what happens to the environment. There was a sticky yellow residue all over the curtain rods and walls and everything. Pretty gross. It reminded me also of the times when they'd burn coal to heat the house. That would cause black residue. We don't smoke but have dog residue all over. I guess it's always something!0
