No matter what the smell is, somebody is going to complain. No point in telling someone to get over it because if they have an aversion to it, nothing is going to change that, but by the same token, I think most of us here "generally" think that in real world we just want to be left alone and not told what we have to do based on the opinions of others, and if you are getting angry at people over something as basic as smells, especially short duration odors, you are not as much a true conservative and/or libertarian as you profess to be.

Live and let live. Be as courteous and reasonable with others as one can be. Life is too short to make yourself miserable over things like this.

Amen.
