so I was blazin yesterday and when I was lightin up the bowl i kept burning my thumb, and I was left with the decision to get high and burn my thumb, or not get high at all. of course i got high, and god damn it was fun but yo, what lighters are better for not burning your thumb like every time i would flip the ligher over to put it in the bowl it would just go right up against my thumb, shit would kill, and now it's all like blistered, so help plz
haha man all you need to know is that fire burns up
work around it...
Haha,, get one of those long ass lighters people use for like birthday cakes and shit lol..
I dunno if that is a good idea but I'm soooo blazed and i think it owuld look funny as hell:thumbsup: :rasta:
dude i'm about ot get a zippo MPL, or some shit but would these grill lighters work, i know they are huge but being caught isn't a problem for me, http://www.broilkingbbq.com/images/G...o/31556360.jpg
turn the lighter sideways when u spark ur bowl
put some toothpaste to your thumb to cool it down, it really helps, and buy a tortch lighter :thumbsup:
It's not that hard to not burn your thumb while lighting a bowl, jeeze.
yo how long does a burnt thumb hurt, it's like fucking white compared to the reddish regular hand... what can i do to speed up the healing, don't say don't blaze cuz that won't work haha, i'm goin out again tonight
I am a big glass piece guy and I used to burn my thumb alot and it was very annoying. However if you use your index finger to light instead of your thumb you should suffer much less blisters. This method works for BIC's and the crappy Chinese butane lighters. I've never tried it on anything else though.
at my conveniance store they sell these lighters about the same size as a large bic. But the base is small and it has a metal rod thing where the flame comes out. awesome for not burning yourself
damn you guys are really having a hard time with this. just light it differently like either of these ways
yea its not rocket science. of the flame goes upward then simple dont put ur damn finger in the flame...............omg how did the human race ever survive this long
i mean i know that flames always go upward no matter what you do with them, but i'm just saying, i'm having trouble using the normal lighting method and not getting burned also my lighter doesn't have a very tall flame, so maybe i'll look into that, oh and thanks d1me for the pics, that helps
we used to get the long lighters for gravity bongs, and people always thought we were smokin crack or some shit
