Please advise.  My front loading samsung washer Wf203anw/xac is producing acrid smoke in the drum during the spin portion of the rinse cycle. I immediately turned the machine off and unplugged, and also noticed the rubber seal seems damaged. 

The machine is surely out of warranty. Is there a fix?

Sounds like you have a loose/broken door gasket or something caught between the drum and the gasket. Suggest to inspect the integrity of the gasket, check the gap between the gasket and the drum (abound 1/4 -3/8 inch). Also use hand to spin the drum to see if it turns freely and true. Gasket replacement is not too hard if you're handy. Can watch YouTube for reference.

I misread and thought you were talking about someone you live with or interact with who constantly smokes and it bothers you. If your washing machine had such bad habits, you’d definitely need to do something about it. Anyway, about smoking: I’m glad I live alone, honestly, and no one is nagging me about how smoking is bad and harmful. So, SmokeNow https://smokenow.co/ has a huge selection of both cigarettes from various brands and vape devices and juices that I want to try. And it’s great that I don’t need anyone’s approval.
