it took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to realize that everyone in my age group is carrying lighters around because cigarettes are back in. i don't smoke, but i figured you can always use a lighter on you anyway, just in case someone else needs one. everyone that steps outside to smoke at functions is always hot & cool-looking, so my secret plan is to make myself useful to them by offering a light. (i am a little too excited about this and it may take months for anyone to even ask me if i have a light and the payoff will last for 5 seconds but i will be cheering inside.) plus i can use mine to light my incense at home. i got this one for $6 from a vending machine at a college bar and the flame is GREEN
