I personally prefer Ronson refillable torch lighters. Higher (and adjustable) flame, electric spark (easier to light than a flint), and only cost a few cents more. They're better (than Bics) for outdoors and colder weather in my opinion.

I have a Zippo, but I got sick of refilling it and I dispise the taste/smell. I might bring it out on a windy day.

Anyway, I'll use whatever is available. If it makes fire, it can help make me high.
