what, no manual?
I went to get a new lighter today and when I looked closely I noticed an extra sticker on it. Seriously? Instructions? You mean it’s not magic? Do you not just invoke the god of fire and hope your prayers will be answered? Have I been doing it wrong this whole time, then?
Honestly though, I will need more than that. Do you have a 0800 number we could call? You see, I was born a blonde and I thought I got over it but things like this keep reminding me I may not have after all. This is the only way I can look at it. Seeing it in any different way will make me feel like you’re insulting me and my intelligence. Actually not just mine but everyone else’s as well.
As a neurotic member of our society I am deeply worried about this. Shouldn’t it be that if you don’t know how to use a lighter then you shouldn’t be allowed to have one? Wouldn’t that be the best idea? Keep the idiots away from the fire breathing machine? Because, in my book, if someone picks up a lighter and goes “But how?” then they are an idiot.
Is it a marketing idea? Did someone complain? What on earth made you come up with this? Please explain, because I feel like a blonde now and it’s all your fault. I need answers stat and preferably not on a sticker.

Commented on May 20th, 2008 at 6:13 pmTo be honest, I seriously can never get a lighter to work. I know how to make it work, it just doesn’t until like the 30th try. Good thing I don’t ever need to use one lol.

Heather :: It’s all in the fingers.
Honestly, I’m with Heather. I can’t get the lighters to light either. But I don’t smoke, so I’m fine with it.
Commented on May 20th, 2008 at 10:29 pmOh, Lord, what will they have to have instructions for next?
I don’t like those lighters, though, they’re not as good as “Bics”.
Commented on May 21st, 2008 at 1:44 amHere’s a dumb question - do you have “Bic” lighters over there and do they have instructions, also?
Oh boy that made me giggle. I can get a lighter to work but not matches (I don’t smoke or anything though). haha

Muahahahahahaha! Oh wait, I think I’m one of them. LOL!
Commented on May 22nd, 2008 at 5:16 amMeesh :: You’re not one of them (even though your gravatar suggests otherwise)! I’m sure you don’t need instructions on how to light or use a lighter.
