I smell gas...

... I hope those HVAC goobers downstairs know what they are doing. This place could blow at any minute!

Take a BIG, DEEP breathe ... and hold it for 20 seconds ... exhale.

Do that 10 times.

Dude, I'm already on a serious contact high from whatever the hell it is they are using down there...

Open a window? Not an option.. I'd rather blow up than let that 25 degree air in... My little space heater is holding the room at a perfect 68!

Sometimes the strong gas odor is caused by the tank running out..
It don't burn but sure does stink..

But if it comes off the street then you better investigate..

Well they lit it up, it filled the place with smoke, set off alarms... and then all was well. Cranked open the windows to vent the place and it warmed up nicely. My contact high calmed down around 8PM last night.

It's toasty warm today!
