Hi. I have a floor AC, like the one with the tube that goes out the window. The tube goes out the window that is adjacent to the fire escape, I have a second window in the apartment but it is small and in a weird lil cubby corner so the AC doesn't work there. But the issue is people who live in the building smoke on the fire escape and it is coming into my apartment through my AC. I have tried talking to the landlord but this is lowkey like a slumlord situation but idrc because its cheap and they let me do a 6 month lease. But they said that they prohibit smoking on the premises and they will tell the other tenants to stop but I dont think the other tenants care or will stop.

But I really dont like the smell of cigarettes (especially whatever cheap stuff theyre smoking, I'd have less of an issue if it was American Spirits) and I dont want it sticking to my clothes. I have an air filter but I dont think its doing anything. I was wondering if there's anything I could do to keep the smoke from coming in? Or is it possible that my AC is like gonna explode so it smells like cigarettes? Idk. It smells ucky and if yall know how to fix it please help

Hi,

I'm a graduate student in the Amherst area looking for housing starting this month (this is flexible, sorta) on a month to month or 6 month lease as I graduate in december and I am unsure if I am staying in the area. My housing plans for the summer/fall fell through and I am desperately looking for housing. My budget is 1000 a month, looking for a room in a shared house or a studio or anything really. I'm fine with pets and I'm a clean responsible roommate who is not home all that often.

Let me know if you have any leads, thanks!

Hi.

This is actually my roommate's story but he bought em for me and I'm tryna convince him to not return these things.

But a bit ago, he broke one of my vintage drinking glasses and he found them on etsy and bought 4 of them to replace the one he broke (so we each can have a collection of them when he moves out this summer).

Today the 4 cups came in the mail. I opened them, washed them, and added them to my cup collection. And then the etsy seller messaged my roommate and said "hey i actually meant to only send you 1 can you send me the other 3 back". And my roommate looked at the etsy listing and now it says 1 cup for like 30 dollars instead of all 4 for 30 dollars which is what he bought.

My roommate is thinking to offer send back all 4 if he gets a full refund and they pay for the shipping. But I think he should just ignore her and we keep the cups. Not our fault the seller mistakenly sent us 4 of the cups instead of 1, thats not even an easy mistake to make. Like they packed all 4 cups and mailed it to us, if they meant to sell em individually they wouldntve sent all 4 to us?

Anyways, my roommate thinks we should at least try to see if theyll accept all 4 back for a full refund. I think we should be greedy and ignore the seller because its not our fault they messed up. Also i already mixed em in with my glasses which are identical, so like i dont even know which are the new ones and which are the old ones.

So AITB for not wanting to return my etsy purchase?
