For a second, I thought Lemmy had advertisements now.
It does, they’re just user-submitted
I use Arch btw
Like all social media.
Snoop Dogg’s use for the lighter is already covered by “and more” before it gets to Willie Nelson. What is the “so much more” he’s doing with a lighter that doesn’t involve grills, candles, or smoking?
Willie Nelson is known for using his for an extended quantity. Which is where the joke is, here. Snoop is known for smoking weed, and Willie Nelson is known for smoking a substantial quantity for longer than Snoop has been alive. For comparison, Snoop is 52. Willie is 90.
I hope this helped.
Probably to generate discussion about what the “and more” could be, just like it’s doing. Proper ad camp, Bic.
Butt stuff.
TBH this is more corporate “fellow kids” energy than anything else.
I understand what they’re insinuating but won’t any regular lighter work for that purpose? What’s so special about this design?
For when part of the herb that’s loaded in your pipe doesn’t get ignited by capillary action and you need to put the flame directly to it to get it to ignite. Since you’re trying to manipulate the position of the flame it’s easier for your fingers to get in the way. It’s more of an edge case and you can just get better at using a normal lighter, so I’d say this is just for viral marketing if it’s real
edit: and djeep lighters are better for this anyway
When the herb in the bowl is deep, gotta get the flame deeper, so either get gud, or burny fingy.
Like, people have been using regular lighters for this for forever, so it’s not a necessity, just easier.
This lighter has a stem to keep the flame from your thumb, but it isn’t obnoxiously long.
I’ll note the Bic brand is not refillable. Look for a little port on the bottom. I’ve seen some at Ace hardware.
Nah thanks my lighter technique is to ingrained. I’ll stick with the original.
I quite like them, haven’t burnt myself when smoking a bong in a long time.
Wtf happened to Martha Stewart? That is her in the middle?
Jail changes you.
She is friends with Snoop. They bake shit and cook together. It is completely amazing.
Whooshhhh
Chillie Nelson, ma bro!
Btw yesterday I learned who designed the ubiquitous bic lighter: Louis Lucien Lepoix, a guy who pretty much shaped the aesthetic zeitgeist of the early cold war. The more you know…
It’s perfect for lighting bowls
And so much more: Like burning away the hair growing out of your ears without also burning your fingers!
Damn Willie and Snoop must have fallen on hard times to sell out like that. Grandkids must be blowing through that paper LOL
For when you pack your weed microdose in a special 2 inch deep bowl.
I genuinely don’t know what market this is for.
Cigarettes don’t benefit from this, and we already have long ones for lighting the stove or wood burner.
What’s this stubby one for?
I actually use one of these for work. It fits comfortably in my pocket and don’t burn my fingers when I have to light up a bunch of sterno burners.
