It’s because as the hot air rises, cool air comes in from all sides of the fire. Your body blocks that air from one side, so the prevailing current of cool air feeding the fire is biased towards you and it carries the smoke with it.
NO! The smoke hates me personally and is trying to kill me on purpose.
Probably true.
Imma sell a “smoke diverter” that’s a wide piece of cardboard on a stand. Put it opposite your seat at the fire, boom, no more smoke.
Gonna need to sell left- and right-handed versions if you want to capture the market
And a pink one that costs 50% more marketed as “for women” or “for her”
Then you put out the tacticool camo version and the upscale material version that’s just made out of aluminum.
And don’t forget the designer one, which just has a Supreme logo on it yet costs 30x more
I’m not sure how many people can relate, but this is a thing.
It is a thing because of physics https://youtu.be/WgxO7vhlF7A?si=8R7hNf4eW7tp_9v1
“Smoke goes after thieves” is what we always say.
Where I’m from smoke follows beauty. Americans are pretty vain.
