White Lighter? Bad Luck?

You make your own luck. So there for, I just use the lighter closest to me that works. I figure, if it lights my bud it must be good :mrgreen:
Agreed. Besides that, it is a different color everywhere. I've heard red, yellow, white, and probably every color to someone would be considered bad luck. Anyway I use roadflares.

man ive heard this shit before
i used to buy into the hype
but not any more
ive had a white lighter in my pocket for the past week and half
but ill prolly lose it soon
me and my freinds have about 40 lighters and we set it up at the start of the month
so we all have an even amount
and then through out the month we steal the lighters from each other
and who ever ends up with the most at the end of the month wins
its pretty fun actually
if ur good at it



i also heard that a red lighter is the international symbol of a pot smoker

Maybe this is true because my Mom found my white lighter and I got into some deep shit with friends and I had a white lighter on me.

Hmm, seems like your obviously not 18. If you were an adult, your mother would have no reason to be pissed over a lighter.


ALSO, In my area, yellow lighters are also considered bad luck. Actually, for me, yellow/white lighters are good luck for me as I seem to never lose them and I use them all the way til they have no butane left.

I didnt know it was bad luck. I have been buying white lighters since december because you can see how much fluid is left in your lighter. If it was bad luck I havnt noticd it.

I just found this on Urban Dictionary...

The real history to the white lighter myth and why they are unlucky is based on four famous and revolutionary musicians of the second half of the 20th century. Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrex, Janis Joplin, and Kurt Cobain were all left-handed, all died at the age of 27, and all their autopsies reported that a white bic lighter was found in their pockets. This is why it is said that white lighters are unlucky. So if you are 27 and left-handed, don’t use a white bic lighter, you will die.


I had a white bic once, and I got caught smoking by the po po while I was using it...I don't buy them anymore. lol
Jimi Hendrix - died 1970.
Janis Joplin - died 1970.
Jim Morrison - died 1971.
Bic Lighter - first marketed in 1973.

(I'm actually old enough to remember.) :lol:

So you see my fellow tokeneers by believing the white bic lighter is bad voodoo they become bad voodoo I never had a problem with a white bic lighter because to me its a white lighter.:peace:

the only smoker rules I know is:
1. dont hog the bowl.
2. dont hold out.
3. you can buy too sometimes...
and 4. dont kill the buzz.:peace:

bad luck is not having a lighter and having to use matches! i dont care what color it is, as long as it has butane, a spark and makes a flame then it is my friend.

btw i always scratch designs in the sides of mine, that way no one can say i had the same color lighter too, this one isnt yours, its mine! OH REALLY? you happened to scratch all those designs in the side just like mine? they just give it right back.
