hmpitags2006 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 My suitemate smoked the "other" kind of tobacco everyday in the bathroom and was fine, just run the shower and you are golden. Never got into shisha until recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tingjunkie Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 (edited) Did you get in trouble because:a ) you live in a non-smoking dorm?b ) the lit coal is a considered a fire hazard in the school handbook?c ) the RA's are under the false impression that you are smoking something illegal?If it's a or b, then you just have to make sure not to get caught, or maybe smoke outdoors. If it's c, tell the RA's to piss off and to go educate themselves on what hookah is (or you could be nice and patiently explain it to them.)

web250 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Never tried it, out of respect for my roommate, who is a good friend of mine, but I've contemplated it.What's the worst that could happen? Res-life violation, and I have to put up a bulletin board. Whoop-di-frickin-do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheetz Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I was cool with my RAs. We let them in on our 16 man Halo 2 Sessions so he didnt care that I was smoking in my room. I still had the door closed and what not but they just didnt bother me about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaraDunn Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I'm going to try to smoke in my dorm since my R.A. has been missing the past two months or so (new boyfriend we think). Smoking hookah on my campus is tricky. My friend was smoking it outside, 25ft away from all buildings and it was confiscated from him and he was charged for using "obscure" drugs. So, I'm planning on cracking the window open and covering the smoke detector. We aren't allowed to have incense either. The first day this year, my R.A. ran down the hall searching every room for the person who was burning them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many detectors know when they've been covered, and will go off.You've either been listening to too many college dorm RA's or you've been very unlucky. I've seen and heard of tons of covered smoke detectors, and never once has one "known" it was covered. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that it might be quite difficult for a smoke detector to actually determine that it had been covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaraDunn Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 (edited) It's a pretty horrible thing to do (oh and it PISSES the living hell out of my dorm mates and me) but pop popcorn while you're doing it...like two or three bags.That'll cover the smell, and it might piss people off, but no one will know who was popping it. I love the wet towel idea--I'm going to use that. Edited January 18, 2007 by SaraDunn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASUSEAN1 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 i cover my detector for awhile but then jus gave up, it takes a lot more than hookah smoke to set one off. I wish my windows would open.
