Does anyone know of a way to vent a room without opening a window?

I am sure everyone knows why I am asking and I probably shouldn't make my bad habits known to the noobs but they will find out anyway. Thoughts though? If I open the window, being in a high rise I die from heat even at 60 degrees and I see this is going to be a problem come summer. I can spray Lysol but without a vent, any smell doesn't go away.

I might need to move my computer in the living room and leave the door closed with the window open in my bedroom. That way, come time to sleep, the window is closed and during the day, I don't care what the temperature is.


I don't know your setup there but you really do need an open window and a pedestal fan. Or a vent in the roof?

We weren't supposed to smoke in our rooms in the hospital through the night so what we used to do was wait until the night nurse had done his/her rounds, go into the bathroom with our smokes and a straw and blow the smoke out through the tiny hole in the vent through the straw.

Our brains are wired differently. Not defectively. It's like being either left or right handed. Neither is better and each has its own advantages and disadvantages.


I wish I was right handed, being left handed sucks actually.

Tell me about it. I love doing calligraphy but I always smudge what I've just written.
We used to have a left hand store here in Sydney many years ago.

It's a right hander's world, that's for sure. Scissor handles cut into my hand.

I'm actually ambidextrous but mostly left handed.

I using that as a metaphor, saying that being autistic is like being left handed and saying the situation sucks, never mind, it was a dumb. I am actually ambidextrous.

Crazy stuff, I was thinking about making a Sploof but this pipe is going to let out alot regardless. I was going to draw you my setup but I find myself too baked to actually do that :mrgreen:

Plus posting my setup admitting to committing a crime seems like something someone who wasn't very bright would do. but meh, I am not really worried about it, otherwise I wouldn't post at all. With all the NSA spying I just like to F you to the spies every now and than. Yeah thats right, screw the feds reading this!

(US feds, not you ImAnAspie)

I just realised I've lost my drinking buddy.

But I'm very happy you're getting better, ImAnAspie.

Nashville just turned into Silent Hill's foggy town lol

I can't see the ground! I can barely make out the ground from my height with the fog which is kinda scary actually, it looks like I am either on the 200th floor or floating.
