Dialogue after dinner at a friends’ place last night.

She says, as he’s heading out onto the front porch to smoke, “You’re not going to leave that door open are you?”
No answer.
As I cross the room to close the door, she tells me, “He always likes to leave the door open so he can hear the music.”
He sees me as I approach the door and says, ”You’re not going to close that door are you?”
I just laugh.
He adds, “I like to leave it open so I can hear the music…”
I laugh again.

What is the point of smoking outside if you are going to leave the door open? All the toxic smoke just gets sucked back into the house.
