It looks like moisture/sweating stains and recently painted walls.

Is there an attic above this ceiling or a living area? It appears to be nicotine to me.

They used the wrong type of paint for a wet/damp environment.

My first thought was Smokin in the Boys Room, too. Why none on the walls?

Really! Thanks for the heads up!
C'mon David.... Point is , there was none - absolute zero staining on the walls. As a former smoker, I can tell you that when I would smoke in the house (ages ago) the smoke did not bypass the walls on its way up to the celing. Nicotine stains were everywhere - although more on the ceiling, you could see staining on the walls also. |

So your saying that cigarette smoke will stick to the walls just as much as it would to ceilings. Your wrong. As a former smoker myself, I'm willing to bet that that stain is from smoking in the bathroom. |

I was commenting that it was odd that there is no staining whatsoever on the walls. I never said that it will stick to the walls just like the ceilings. Quote:

You misread my post, tell me I'm wrong and when I point that out, I'M the @$$? LOL. Yes, it probably is smoke stains. The answer to why none on the walls is probably they just painted the walls, and not the ceiling. Why not the ceiling too, is the million dollar question. (Unless, of course, they have that magic smoke that only adheres to ceilings. Now THAT was being an @$$. Lighten up. |

You need to take your meds and chill out dude. Consider yourself lucky that you're not in my area. I happen to be on a mini-vacation, so don't even ask. |

I think someone needs to smoke a peace pipe.
