Campfire smoke
While at Hunting Island campground, my wife and I were eating dinner outside. All,of a sudden a continual cloud of eye watering smoke comes pouring around the front of the camper and under our awning....

If someone came up to me and said something like "can you make more fire than smoke" I'd consider it to be a smart a$$ remark and ignore them, too. Something like, "looks like you got some wet wood -can I offer you some dry wood to help you out?" Goes a lot farther in my book.
Yeah...I could have been a lot more diplomatic, for sure. We were in the middle of a dinner I had spent 2 hours preparing for our last night at the campground. The amount of smoke was unreal. Our eyes were watering and we were coughing. Kinda ruined a really nice meal. Regardless, I could have been nicer.
However, if my neighbor came over and complained, I would have been embarrassed, apologized and would have attempted to do rectify the situation, even if I thought he acted like an asshat.
One thing to remember is that how you think you would react in a situation can be very different than how you actually react in that situation when you are frustrated, stressed, and angry at yourself and nothing is going as planned.
