ya people say yellow are bad luck here lol and one time i bought one but id say i had pretty good luck during the time i had it, and i actually used it till it was empty to which is a rare thing, my lighters never last me that long since they usually get jacked but no one wanted to steal a yellow lighter lol
idk if anyone's said this already, but if you're smoking out of a bowl, DO NOT use a zippo! the fuel they use makes the herb taste like shit!
BIC is the way to go, ive had soo many. Ones with stickers that look like wood, steel, crumpled up paper, and of course, the good old solid black.
whateva you do you stay away from the white ones, ya hear me?? they bring nothin but trouble.

I've heard so many different thoughts on the various BIC colors I'm actually FREAKING out because I'm such a superstious person! Ahhh!
Does anyone use a cool cover (like a pewter one or something) to go over their BIC? Does this take away any issues with the color? hee hee
uh so im a big lover too. i rip off the child safety deal first thing. and just to agree with a few people, white lighters were always bad luck with the people i used to kick it with. i actually like lighter colors, seems like red and black and so popular and i always loose them to people. by the way something else to maybe check out is
1.phedor. i really want to pick one of these eventually. seems like you wouldnt taste any fuel.
2.lighter covers. like cannabuds,or heres clipper holders.
i dont know, thats just my 2 cents. oh yeah and dont support cheap lighters! buy a bic or matches, dont use a zippo or torch. if you can smoke outside and have nothing use a magnifieing glass!
Bic actually makes a metal cover for their lighters. It's their "M series" for the full size ones, and I don't remember what its called for their mini lighters, But it's just a plain flip-top metal case. They sell them at bigger drug stores (saw them at walgreens the other day...) They're like $5-7 and they come with one lighter.Quote:

Colibri would have fixed it for $15, but the case was so beat-up, I just bought a new one.
i swear by bics, i dont like those cheap ass lighters that u can make the flame go like a ft high on, hard to light an run out very fast
i got a metal bic case that the top flips open, unfortunatley it only houses the minibic, the flame is to small to smoke bowls with it when its in the case too, im tryin to get one of the big cases
I had a shitty BIC lighter the other week. I couldn't figure out why I didn't like it. It was red, which I usually like. I flipped it over and WaaLaa!! "Made in France" I was like what the fuck? Searched through my drawers and all the others were made in the USA.
Shitty french crap... I threw it away.
Colibri if you're looking for a fancy one. I have one of their torch lighters and its great, but you have to be careful not to destory whatever's in your bowl, cuz they burn super hot. I usually burn the first bowl or two with a Bic, but once I'm high I have a hard time flicking it, so I switch over to the push button torch style one. :D
