evil lighters?

[Swift Serenity]

This is a pretty silly thing to be supersticious about guys 8)

agree. but i did get caught with a white one by my dad once ha but idc id still use it

 

[double ewe]

every superstition is silly if it's not yours.

i'm superstitious about white lighters (and black cats and looking at my cards when i'm the big blind and my turkish evil eye pendant) . . doesn't really impact my life, i just won't buy them.

I always thought the only reason white lighters where evil was that they got black marks on the bottom when you used them to push down ash....

I have heard that white lighters are unlucky

but all bic lighters are white on the bottom....

 

[haikod]

I meant at the edge. But yeah even then all it takes is a second to rub it off.

 

[Drotacular]

around here its yellow lighters that are evil, on a count of bob marley died with a yellow lighter in his pocket. could be a rumor or something but ive always heard yellows evil not white

 

[me0307]

the only unlucky lighter is one that's empty

^ LOL QFT!!

hahaha i find this to be really funny
i thought only a few people believed in this
(me being one of them)

 

[tyler_fitz]

any lighter i haven't lost is a lucky lighter...

 

[His Name Is Frank]

obviously the know-it-alls and armchair scientists will come into this thread and try to apply logic like 'all bics are white under its color-coating' and 'its impossible for a certain color lighter to be bad luck'

but fuck it, i have a reason to be paranoid. both times i got arrested i had a white lighter on me. i will stay away from white lighters as long as I live

The last person to tell me this had a Bic with a dragon design on it. I simply tore off the cover art to reveal to her the white lighter underneath.

It's all silly ass superstition. I'll bet both times you were arrested, you were wearing socks, shoes, jeans and a shirt. If you tried to breathe this logic into every little detail, you'd be walking around completely naked. Then you'd be arrested for indecent exposure. What then?

 

[dunwich]

all lighters are bad luck!!





...anyway i used to always hang out with a guy who wouldnt let people with red lighters into his house. I always thought he was fucking retarded for being superstitious, but i didnt say much usually because we were good friends. Well, he turned out to be a fucking asshole, so after our friendship ended i used red lighters almost exclusively for months...haha

i handnt been able to buy a red lighter for like 2 years because this fuckin guy wouldve gotten all irrationally lame about it. Red is one of my least favorite colors, but shit, its the only bic where the button matches!

 

[DarkSideoftheWall]

Yeah I heard the white lighter tale, but since I've been booked with like green, yellow, red, and probably white lighters, I'm just gonna say I'm unlucky.

 

[Shovelist]

Around here yellow lighters are supposedly bad luck.

Has been since I can remember.. and still is.

An acquaintance of mine recently try to blame all his bad luck on my yellow lighter we used one day. I was like.. no, nature is just catching up to you.

 

[funkmaster]

I got arrested with a yellow bic
so I stray from yellow

 

[Akoto]

White lighters are the best because you can see how much fuel is in them.

Black lighters both look cool (stolen), and are hard to see in the dark (lost)

 

[stimutant]

i buy only green lighters, but thats just because i like the color. nothing special...

 

[zigzag| dta]

i dont really have an unlucky lighter color..... but i always use red lighers

 

[plutoniumboss]

Bluelighters are bad luck...lulz.

 

[Pinkpuff]

lmao whats up with the white lighter thing?
I always heard about that, but why is it considered to be so unlucky?
