Maybe I'm paranoid, I just finished doing a sweep of my house following a phantom smell which existed only in a 2-3 ft area of my living room... At least, I guess it was a phantom smell. There was no one else around to confirm or deny it's existence.
Do you ever smell something odd and look around the house trying to find the source? It doesn't have to be smoke, any smell is good enough for this thread.
I didn't used to but a few years ago I was walking by my uncle's house(he lives next door to me.) and noticed a little smoke coming out of his car garage. It was just a little smoke -H e's a mechanic and smoke isn't unusual when dealing with front-end loaders and Log Skitters and varies other 30 year old heavy machinery. I don't know why but I went to investigate. I knocked on the front door but no answer, I was going to peek in the door and as soon as I opened it I was blasted in the face with a wall of smoke. It melted the plastic ceiling stuff on the porch before I even got fully away from the house. The same stuff that hit me in the face was melting thick plastic almost instantly. Scary shit thinking back on it. Then a year or so later we smelled smoke and found the hot water heater breaker thing had caught fire and melted itself. Lucky it didn't spread. Ever sense then every time I smell something I start looking for stuff prone to fires. I check the toasters, breaker box, hot water heater and anything else pulling a decent load like computers, tvs, game consoles.. I love the smell of burnt PCB in the morning.
That is all, Carry on.
