View Full Version : Lighters
I have a friend/main smoking partner who always seems to jack my lighter whenever we smoke. He has gotten to the point where he always ends up with it regardless of who has the last hit.
The other night he bummed a cigarette off of me and kept my lighter. Not much later I was going to smoke a bowl before running some errands and had the bowl packed and ready and my lighter was no where to be found. It's not intentional but has gotten rather bothersome. Any tips or suggestions how to train my friend to not be such a lighter thief? Anyone else seem to have this problem with a friend?
thanks,

Light things for him. If he can't be mature and return your belongings back to you, treat him like a kid, by lighting his bowl/joints/blunts/bongs/buckets/waterfalls etc.
Or tell him to fuck off and get his own.
Worked for me.
Oh, and by the way, welcome to the boards.

Tell him to stop. And if he still doesn't roshambo him for it.
I think I'm going to start lighting things for him. the pocket check is a good idea in theory but evry time I forget, due to being blazed out of my mind, he ends up with the lighter. He's houdini when it comes to lighters.

Don't get a retractable lighter leash. They make for some pretty lethal weapons, when retracted and let go, resulting on the lighter hurling at a fast speed towards your midriff. And if you suddenly turn, it has been known to follow you around and hit you in the nether regions.

Thats why I said roshambo him for the lighter.

Make a mental note to always ask for your lighter back, or decorate it in a way that you won't forget it. My girlfriend decorated a sweet one for me and I never let anyone run off with it.

get a pink lighter, no one steals a pink lighter.
^ You wouldn't think so...but he has.
When I was with a LOT of friends, EVERYONE had a pink lighter.
We all thought pink was a color no one else would have so we wouldn't lose our light :(

We used to have this problem with me and my friends too. We called it "BIC-ing" the lighter, for some odd reason. A stoner moment I guess.
But yes, it does get annoying. Especially when smoking. You light a joint or whatever, you're good and high and end up forgetting about your lighter. You go home, smoke a bowl only to find out that yous aw your buddy snag it. :p It was all by accident mind you, but I know when I'm putting something in my own pocket, I know what I'm doing, so maybe it isn't on purpose. ;)
Anyways, the best thing to do is just to get the lighter back right after they're done using it. They light their smoke, great, now ask for your lighter back before it goes missing. It isn't rude, but it saves you $2 and a trip to the store to get another one.
So just keep an eye on your lighter.

HAHAHAHA I AM THAT FRIEND
:pimp: :pimp: :pimp:
He might be like me. It is insticnt for me to put a lighter in my pocket after i light something. I don't even think about it as i do it. All someone has to do is ask for it and il give it to them or ill check my pockets and realize i have a lighter that doesn't belong to me. Have patience with him if this is the case. We can't help it.

Since I chucked the bics and started using a decent lighter from the cigar shop, I haven't lost one yet. Picked up a colibri firebird and extra fuel for under $20 and I allways get that thing back. When you hand someone a bic, they don't think twice about pocketing it. Hand them a cold peice of steel with an inch long blue flame and theyll stare at it and hand it right back.

Ha ha! Yeah, that would fly over really well. Your buddy is nicc-ing out for a cigg., and he asks if he can use your lighter, you say no. :p I can picture it already. GIVE ME YOUR FUCKIN LIGHTER!
What you could do is light the smoke for them so the lighter never leaves your hand.
Come to think of it, this question is so easy to figure out on your own I don't see why someone would ask it.
"uhh...uhhh.how do I wipe my bumhole....uhhh. huh...huh...hey beavis...huh huh huh..." I got carried away again.

That's what happens when you can't get a lighter of your own and desperate for one. Smack him every time he does it and remind him why you did it and he'll eventually stop :D.

dude... its a dollars worth of plastic, metal flint... and some butain...... did your great great great grandmas dogs, moms owner give it to you or did your grandma give it to you befor she died?
i will give you an easy way on how to easly obtain lighters for about a dollar 50....
1. TURN 18
2. dig threw room, find jar of change.... just find some sort of monney
3. count out around 2 dollars....
4. go to school
*wait until after school*
5. go to gas station, food store, corner store, head shop... anyplace that sells lighters...
6.grab lighter you like...
7. go up to the clerk
8. wait while he rings it up...
9. continue waiting...(hes most likely stoned... so hes going to take awhile)
10. after waiting for him to ring it up, ask him to smoke a bowl with you...
11. give him monney...
12. walk out of store...
13. find a ride to were you need to go
come one we do it on a daily bassis... i even do it... and while im at the counter, i get a pack of smokes and zig-zags... and im only 17...(mostly because one of the clerks is my ex girlfriends mom... and i like the only guy her mom ever approved of her dating...on a side note... i think the clerk wants me~my exs GFs mom~ i would do her... but anyways) yea... its not hard to obtain a lighter

Here's some old school advice. If most of these smoking sessions are happening at your house, go on eBay, and invest in a really cool, really big "table lighter". There are some really neat ones to be had for not alot of $$$. Like a kick-ass bong, it's an item that reflects the owners style.

lol i have a friend like this its really annoying because you 4gette to ask, so many of you are saying light it for em ect but this used to cause so many arguments because its so much easyer to light things for yourself that the lighter stealer often gets really annoyed, the lighter leach looks gay and i wouldnt be seen dead wearing one lol. Because LS (lighter stealers) often do it withough knowing you need to teach them everytime they steal your lighter there going to get a dead leg lol..when you lend them your lighter watch them and wait for them to put it in there pocket, the moment they do smack them in the leg or arm and tell them to give you back your lighter. They will then check the lighter before the pocket it and learn stealing lighters= dead leg.

if it happens every time, it is intentional. you dont just keep other peoples things every time you touch them on accident. occasionally you an accidentally take someones lighter, but if it happens all the time it is intentional. bear in mind he isnt going to say hes trying to steal your lighter. i have a friend who does the exact same shit. the kid must have a a p[ile of lighters in his house. the key is just saying can i have my lighter back without calling him out on stealing it otherwise he may deny and sticky situation can ensue
