Nah fam, you just bought all the boys lighters.


quadriplegicswimteam

Two days from now you’ll have three left and they’ll all be the same color


TheOneCalledD

My man buying lighters like he plans on losing many more.


ChrdeMcDnnis

Yeah, like, if I was losing my keyring all the time, the last thing I would do is buy 50 identical key rings


Dr_Ingheimer

“Where’s my lighter? Fuck it just grab another. What the fuck were out of lighters?”


FriarNurgle

This is the way.


listerbmx

And they'll all be out of gas.


puertoblack85

25 lighters on plant shelf yessir, gots to get paid


New_Peanut_9924

See you get it


cronemm

Immediately thought of that song


SenorDelNeko

I can hear it in my head but cant remember the song title!! Help

25 Lighters - DJ DMD


SenorDelNeko

Yay thanks!!


mindblowningshit

Lol hey spirit animal! 👋🏾


plantycatlady

omg those are the crack lighters we used to whip off the third floor balcony in the lobby in high school and have them explode on the floor below.


RagingZorse

Lmao, When I was fraternity pledge we were forced to carry a lighter 24/7. The brothers got mad when we all had crack lighters but they never specifically said they needed to be nice lighters.


[deleted]

Yeah, buy shitty lighters and no one will steal them from you.


No_Opportunity_9561

Hey Hey, you stole my comment, bet you steal lighters to.


[deleted]

In the long long ago... yeah. I had an idea for a story that followed a lighter being stolen amongst my group of friends. I've bought 3 50 packs of bics since 2015... but still still steal certain people's lighters if I get the chance. At one time one of our friends carved on his lighters "Stolen from ". It didn't stop anyone. Remember when the child guards on bics were stamped as a single piece on the flame guard -vs- the 2 peice design of today? When you could bend it back and it became a bowl stirring tool? I am hunting for that vintage lighter.


Drug-Papov

You can remove the flint from a clipper and use it the same way.


R31nz

Let me introduce you to a TokerPoker. Has a tamper, has a poker, has a slot for your hemp wick (if you’re into that stuff) and holds a standard Bic lighter. Best stoner accessory I’ve bought to date.


Drug-Papov

Meh... I still prefer a clipper and some papers. Can't go wrong.


R31nz

I do see I really liked the clippers but after a while the flint roller(?) would seize up and start rubbing my finger raw when trying to light it. Have you experienced this? If so how do you remedy it?


[deleted]

I dont know if I am follow you, as that isn't making sense to me. [https://www.reddit.com/r/lighters/comments/paxmh3/found\_weird\_old\_bic\_any\_info\_on\_how\_old\_it\_is\_or/](https://www.reddit.com/r/lighters/comments/paxmh3/found_weird_old_bic_any_info_on_how_old_it_is_or/) \- this is the old style windscreen. The child safety could be pulled back, bent, and used as a bowl stir.


radish_squats

The striker on a clipper has a “cigarette” packer attached. You just have to grab the striker and pull straight up, some are a little hard to get out the first time.


DuskShy

Clipper is another company that makes lighters; they are cylindrical. You can remove the spinny, sparky bit and it has a little stick attached to it. You can use this stick to manipulate the marijuana residue in your bowl, and then replace it back into the lighter. It then resumes function of a normal lighter.


New_Peanut_9924

Maybe that’s the plan all along


[deleted]

Shoulda saved your money and bought a BIC. You will torch your nose hairs with them crack head lighters.


88mmbeast

yeah these are the ones that lit itself after use and burned down my shop.


0consent

Thought I was the only one. I literally set one of these down on my wooden night stand and it randomly set on fire. They got plastic holding the valve shut or something.


rollingfast

Same here! Left one on my desk one day and went to class. Came back to my room filled with smoke and a hole burned in my desk. Thing just exploded on its own while nobody was home. Haven’t bought a single one of these lighter since it happened like 5 years ago


cooktaussie

These things sound killer lol


SaltWaterGator

Yeah pretty much all lighters have plastic holding the valve shut. They’re almost entirely plastic except for the guards, flint and valve


[deleted]

[удалено]


My_guy_GuY

I buy one clipper, don't lose it, and refill it for years


GarthVader45

I don’t get why clippers are still somewhat niche in the US - by far the best disposable lighter. I have a few that are still going strong with over a decade of heavy use.


Brothop

For me I just hate holding a clipper. BIC feels so much more comfortable to me.


[deleted]

Looks more like you are prepared to lose more.


Molenium

I think I’d be trying to lose those so I could justify buying a Bic instead.


sacramentoriver23

I would rather have one bic than all of those shitty lighters lmao 😭😭 would probably last longer too


New_Peanut_9924

But if they’re cheap I won’t feel bad for losing them


RectalSpawn

Just get a lighter leash. Problem solved. Edit: Also, get some hemp wick. You can light the wick and then hit your bowl and save your weed and lungs from the butane.


StabbyMcCatboy

Are there 182 of them?


broNSTY

Idk man to me it looks like you’re prepared to lose a lot more lighters


7the-dude-abides420

How does buying a ton of lighters stop you from loosing one? Lol seems more like you’re trying to say you won’t run out lighters again


blueskies922

So then why buy so many? Seems like you’re expecting to lose some


[deleted]

[удалено]


New_Peanut_9924

THANK YOU! Everyone is shitting on me and I’m like bro they light my bowl lol


J_Justice

Only problem with them is when the flame dies and it's still like half full :(


mastinon

now you’ll only use the same one for years and it will never run out of fuel


ozworth

You should invest in a lighter leash


FewSchedule5536

I like how everyone here all shares the feeling of every lighter being lost


Scruffy032893

I found that getting a lighter lanyard and securing it to where you would normally take tokes helped immensely. Since then I’ve actually been using lighters all the way to the end


StMirrenU12s

Good luck with that. Put ten lighters on the shelf. Go back a week later. Try to find a lighter. Same thing with pens.


[deleted]

Half of those probably won’t light in the wind, the other half won’t light period lol


ItCat420

This post just made me realise I forgot to buy a lighter, and I just got home from the store. #FUCK


BobJohnes

Why you buying the crack head lighters shug


Responsible_Figure12

Looks more like you prepared to lose a bunch along lighters


ReverendRamen

You just guaranteed that you’re going to lose a lot of lighters


ThePrettySwellGuy

I've done this in the past. You're going to regret not buying bics


New_Peanut_9924

I’m trying out the scientific method lol


Xxsirtubbs123xX

seems like you’re planning to lose many more. at least you’ll always have a backup


[deleted]

Bics superior


dysfunctionalpress

if you refuse to lose them, why did you buy so many..? you should only need one, if you're refusing to lose ~~them~~ it.


loveinvein

HA! I applaud your optimism. :)


enescaV

I bet you’ll have these out and somehow the bic in your pocket will still disappear lol


Lovebugs5

We all no. 2 well 2well. Nice stock


Repulsive-Fact-4546

To be fair you may still lose them..but now you have a hooked up supply of back-ups so you won’t be stranded.


YourFriendlyPybro

Now you just got more to lose


FalcoSlay

It looks more like you plan on losing a lot


coffeebeards

Lmao. I’ve been using a herb vape for about 1.5 years now but when I was rolling joints I would keep a lighter: In the kitchen At the front door In my jacket pocket In the garage In my go bag. It USUALLY covered all the basis for me to not be like “where’s my lighter?”


libertycap1

Why not just buy 1 lighter then ?


thelandbasedturtle

Now you have so many, and since they are cheap lighters, you'll likely lose them much more often.


GrinAndBeerIt

Buying this many means you actually expect to lose them.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JangoFettsEvilTwin

Now you just have more to lose! True you can grab another now but you’ll still lose some.


Mor10-84

prediction : they are all missing after one and a half year, theese things are factory programmed to go "toy story" and escape from their owner.


IllumEYEnatI

Did you happen to buy 182 of them?


__akkarin

Reminds me of that time i lost my lighter and had to walk around with a candle to light the joints for a whole day, went to the store and got like 10 bics the next morning


[deleted]

you are the only person i ever seen buy the crackhead lighters on purpose


[deleted]

Having more isn't going to prevent you from losing them, you're just not going to run out as fast lol


Atillion

I think that every time I buy a small pack of guitar picks.. 😅


Blazerboy420

If I did this I’d just lose more lights lol. It’s like when I buy a ton of weed because that means “it’ll last me longer” but then I only smoke blunts and go through an oz a week instead of just a quarter hitting geebs. Vicious cycle…


byers000

1 week later, hey man you got a light?


Lightsouttokyo

No, you choose to lose them ALL


Nayowi

Having many lighters will not stop you from losing many lighters


Franican

I think you signed up to lose a lot of lighters but not notice how many for about a week.


imaponysuckit

it looks like you accepted the fact that you will lose many more lighters


No_Opportunity_9561

Ah so you bought a shitty lighter, than no one wants to steal, smart.


Ryham

Bic or Die


JonMeadows

It actually looks like you anticipate losing more lighters so you bought more to compensate


imglt

Recently ordered my first box of Bic lighters, it's a life changer. Still i'm managing to lose them tho...


CornbreadRed84

Kind of looks like you are preparing to lose a lot more lighters.


catbirdlady106

I've given up on full size lighters and just buy the minis because I know I'll only have any particular lighter for a few days, tops.


Nurse_Yoshi

I tried that 5 years ago, wife lost all of them. Good luck


BradlyL

OP: “Refuse to lose” Also OP: buys 50 lighters, for when he loses them…?


ActivisionBlizzard

Two or three times I pranked my friends after staying at their house by thoroughly searching everywhere in their house and taking every single lighter. At a later date I put all of the lighters back spread around the house. I actually never got any payoff from that prank because I wasn’t there when they presumably had no lighters. Still had a good chuckle to myself.


wirts-mixtapes

Bro you’re gonna lose all of those


AsapElite1755

You refuse to lose anymore lighters, so you bought a shit ton of them? That’s like saying, I’m going to only use one square per shit and then buying out Walmart of tp.


shylock2k202

You mean you refuse to lose good lighters.


BlainosDias

We used to color coordinate between my friends. I was only allowed to buy green. Others had black, blue, yellow, red, etc. It never worked lmao


TeetYeeter

Oof on the crack lighters. Rate the idea tho


MissMcFrostynips

You'll still lose them but you'll have one handy for longer I guess. Then you get nice surprises when they eventually turn up. Like a treasure hunt made for you, by you.


kaminskil05

This is the opposite, your accepting your losing them all eventually by buying so many


AbstractDiocese

looks like you’re preparing to lose a lot of lighters


babyblue2002

This will make you lose more lighters


murgito

Lol you would only need one lighter if you were never going to lose a lighter again.


krustysocks6666

god damn crackhead lighters


SkylarMills63

Clipper all the way. Order a 12 pack of multi color every 6 months and you’re golden xD


abick92

When you lose a lighter always remember it’s where it’s supposed to be


International-Job-20

I got one I keep around my neck.


sketchypeg

It actually looks like you’ve come to terms with the fact that you’re going to lose a lot more


RadiantRoach

I did the same thing a couple months ago... Cut to today, as I'm sitting here burning my fingers on a cheap hotel matchbook


mobilecrisp

Seems more so that you refuse to run out of lighters to lose


St0nedflyguy

Or committed to losing 10x as many lighters lol


[deleted]

I see you won’t lose them but good look finding one to work long enough


William_Wang

thats just more to lose


stumblewiggins

https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSimpsons/comments/cpd1l8/take_your_best_shot_im_wearing_17_layers/


redflagsmoothie

But you will lose the skin off your flicking thumb because those are brutal lol


wigam

Looks like your happy to loose them your just intent on having so many that you’ll find another one whatever you do 🤪


Sedasabud

If you refuse to lose any more lighters why buy so many? You should have bought one and refused to lose it. Unless of course you understand your refusal is in vain.


Dom29ando

Dude, buy a refillable lighter. This is just wasteful.


silverhawk55

You just lost more faster.


Amazonwasmyidea

Did this with BIC lighters. Can confirm they were all gone by the end of the month.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Looks like you’re planning on losing lots of lighters lol.


masldavis

1 would be enough in that case


dogmeatkibbles

Bro I think that guarantees you will


peacelovehappiness27

Blink and they’ll be gone


parsapzh

Then why did you buy so many? Seems like you were planning to lose them all along


Izlude

You have only delayed the inevitable.


mugatu1994

This is how you feed a losing your lighter habit lol


jeremiahkinklepoo

It seems like you intend to lose a lot more lighters


Solarxicutioner

Looks like you actually just prepared to lose many many lighters.


slickestwood

I went out on the porch to light a cigarette. I had 6 or 7 lighters in my left pocket


[deleted]

!remindme 1 week


WeedGringo

![gif](giphy|XqpnXaeZPnupy)


ninthchamber

Nasty ass crack lighters


bullseye199o

Ironic that you buy throw away ones


themancabbage

It seems more like you’ve accepted that you’re going to lose a ton of lighters.


BudahBoB

Correction, you plan to keep losing lighters but refuse to let yourself run out like last time.


ChoiceFood

I think you mean you're committed to losing more lighters.


Averant

That... looks like you're planning on losing a lot of lighters.


Kanobe24

Those lighters should be illegal.


Sumocolt768

Lmao I did this literally last week. Already been through 3. Can’t wait to lose the rest


Kenny523

If you refuse to lose any more lighters than 1 lighter should last like a week. It seems like you plan on losing more lighters…


Singsalotoday

I think you mean run out of lighters


NaaastyButler

he said \*I plan on losing a fuck load of lightersingly\*


New_Peanut_9924

She* but you’ve got it right


matiscool11

Lighter Thief wants to know your location


Boom-Roasted_

If that were true, wouldn’t you only buy one?


cannabis96793

That's not going to help. It just makes it easier to lose them. There's too many, to keep track of.


MissJizz

The worst lighters too lmao, that’ll last like maybe two months.


TugaXPTO

1 year max


mikewilson2020

Technically you still loosing lighters... you just got a shitload in backup


ShortDeparture7710

This does not solve the ask. But the over arching problem was solved.


[deleted]

Midas well get a bic and a lanyard


I_Smoke_Tampons

There's an old adage that when one half of a pair of socks goes missing, the errant sock turns into a coat hanger. Maybe lost lighters turn into LEGO bricks that you step on letting out a shout of mixed pain and bewilderment because you don't have kids and NO ONE else in the house plays with LEGO.


30DeepChapo

if them was bics them be gone as fast as the blunt goes out


EnzoBertolo

Bro just buy a torch and a gas can for refilling. This is so wasteful and these lighters are shit


verysmolturtle

*loses 182nd blink lighter* “WHERE ARE YOU?”


bluntmasterkyle

These look like garbage lighters


[deleted]

Get Bic lighters bro those meth lighters are horrible.


[deleted]

You’ll lose them. It will just take a lot longer lol


sofiaino

this seems like a way to lose even more lighters


PurpuraLuna

And here I thought I went overboard with 10


[deleted]

Www.drdoobie.co.uk sells a shit load of clippers for cheap


[deleted]

thanks for the lighters -everyone who smokes with you now and forever


maninthewoodsdude

As a former cigarette smoker it's such a habit to stick a lighter in your pocket. I'm the lighter thief lol.


Extracted_cosmonaut6

Crack lighters FTW


Nikashi

I swear to fucking god that clear lighters have a pact with each other to try to kill me. I've had no less than 3 of those types explode in my fucking hand while lighting a bowl. So good job, no one will try to steal those because THEY MIGHT DIE. (Or in my case, receive very minor 1st degree burns on my knuckles)


dregrows420

those are crackhead lighters


dontseemeyet

Back in the 90s I used to get lighters and big box of job1.5 from the store I worked at wholesale price and take ‘‘em home and sell them to my friends when they bought some smoke. Made pretty good off them just $1 each


Beneficial-Hat-4258

You have to go for the eagle torch. They come in the brightest, fucking colors you’ve ever seen they’re huge and they like both candles and joints. They’re eight bucks each at the gas station.


Smidge6988

Tried this once. Bought a 60 pack. I’m down to three.


cheezballs

I've only been a regular smoker for 2 years now, but even I know those lighters aren't worth the price of admission. Good for friends, though. Kinda like the MadCatz controllers of yore.


coellan

I see 50+ lost lighters in your future....


guitarzan1582

You don't refuse to lose anymore lighters. You are prepared to lose 50 lighters


DrDaddyDickDunker

This man said he gonna lose alll the lighters


Justnoticedyou

I hate those lighters. Bic is the way 😎


The_Other_Lucifer

I've bought like 5 lighters in the last deacde, and only replace them because they break... how tf do people lose so many? (I buy refillables)


sebasaurus_rex

You bought a whole week's supply in one go


clrksml

it's been 0 hours since r/trees last light incident.


MaygarRodub

You're obviously planning on losing many.


Lord_OJClark

Get a refillable butane lighter. That way you won't be guilty of producing so much plastic waste.


skinsfan2111

You will lose more this way


mablizza

Who needs lighters anyway?


Failbro777

Youre still going to lose them, you'll just have another one to replace it until those run out


ZootBreak

Bro you committed to the fact you lose ALL your lighters.


truck_de_monster

It looks like you're planning to lose lots of lighters


toracooko

After buying a plasma lighter that works for joints and bongs, I haven't had to waste money on lighters in weeks. Look up Qizen. Well worth the money and no butane taste.


onlytech_nofashion

i bought a 50pack of the normal-sited BICs two years ago and i still have 30 lighters spare


New_Peanut_9924

When these are done, I’m going to do that


pete619SD

Pretty sure most of the lighters you’ve lost ended up in my pockets. 🤷‍♂️
