I also have a clicky stick that has no gas, it just sparks, and it uses Zippo lighter flints. It's like 30 years old.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Cass is not allowed to have butane. Pretty sure Jilli isn't either.
LIES, ALL LIES! We are totes allowed to have butane.
The show quote that is the corner of the page as I read the current clicky stick discussion is apropo:
Flames wouldn't be eternal if they actually consumed anything.

We are totes allowed to have butane.
Yes we are. Totes.
And that's the best Lilah line...
I've never run out of clicky stick--I have butane. But too often I find myself lighting candles with the kitchen torch, which is like cracking a peanut with a hammer. Or sifting through my matchbook collection for ones from places I will go to again, because I'm too lazy to go into the next room and get a proper lighting implement.

Distracted by the tennis. Two Chinese women in the Australian Open semifinals. Pretty damned good.
What is the kitchen torch and do I want one?
DUDE, is that the crème brûlée thingie? I so want one of those. I have been told it's a Bad Idea but it's amazing and I want it.

That's what I thought they ALL were!
What is the kitchen torch and do I want one?
No.
And no.
The only time I ever had it come off unexpectedly on me was when I was cleaning my house during an allergy attack and heat wave. So there was a lot of water (sneeze tears and crazy sweating) and pressure (sneezing and rubbing my eyes) there.
An anxiety attack crying fit will also remove it. I was shocked! But also, I sort of had locked myself in a bathroom stall and wept for a half hour. So.
My mother's lashes got pretty thick with the glaucoma meds. She's sad, however, that they haven't turned her eyes brown. Which is freakish, because the woman has insanely green eyes.
