I smoke all the time at home with friends and family over. I also always bring my pipe bag when I know there is a back yard or porch to smoke at. Most of the time I'm the only smoker but everyone I hang out with knows I smoke and as long as I don't light up one of the " smells like burning tires / hair on fire" English blends, I don't get any complaints. If I know there is going to be a lot of people, I'll smoke aromatics. I usually get complements when I bust out the cpt black grape, bca, and lane dark red. I'm also getting to the age that I don't really care what others opinion is especially if it's my backyard. I won't blow it in their face, but I also don't go hide behind the shed to light up.
