how many emo's does it take to fill a lighter ? |

depends on how drunk they are.
they drunker they are, the more alchohol content would be in their tears . .
so if you had like 20 REALLY drunk emo boys, then that should do it. |

Wouldn't it explode? unless it was completely empty of fluid.
Anyways, just buy another lighter for a buck fitty.
Or get a zippo.
Zippos are pimp. |

I bought a cool lighter @ dancevalley last time i went there. It has the logo carved on it, but when it was empty filling it up was no sukses :whip: :whip: :whip:
And it still bothers everytime I see it laying in room. Unusuable, I wanna use it :mad: |

Heres how it goes (Please note that I did this example quickly. Also please note that you should not do this at home due to the fire risk. All necessary safety equipment was readily avaliable :toothless: ).
(This example only works with Bic lighters, in my experience)
1.) Remove all the pieces from the top of the main lighter body.

2.) Take the lighter outside. Place it on an open area concrete (The less pourous, the better). A five feet radius of clear space should be efficient. A night with no wind is preferrable.
3.) Light the lighter at the plastic where the wheels were attatched. The flame will be small and blue. (My camera did not catch any of this flame...)

4.) Oops! This lighter wasnt empty! Ideally, the lighter will still light a flame on its own, but the flame will be noticeably smaller (AKA the ', i need a new lighter' moment). If your lighter isn't empty, its most advisable to hold down the button and let the gas escape. If you didnt, just stay away from the flame and hope you listened to my 5 foot radius of clear space advice.

5.) When the flame at the top starts to eat into the gas chamber, you will hear the gas escape. Get ready to catch the button (which releases the gas) and the flint piece, both of which will quickly pop into the air. You can save these as well as the initial pieces to decorate your plastic at the end.
6.) The lighter will soon be engulfed with the small blue flame. Sit back and smoke a cigarette as the lighter burns into a puddle of hot plastic on the ground. Don't worry, the plastic come off easily and messlessly from non-porous concrete. The flame here is missing, but I caprutred some of the melting process.


7.) When the lighter is of the desired shape, drop the desired pieces (springs, button, metal guard) into the puddle and blow out the blue flame.

8.) The plastic will solidify around the pieces, forming an oh so modern art table piece. Use some caution when lifting the piece off the concrete: impatience, improper cooling time, or general clumsiness can snap the mold. Use it as a conversation piece or as a random way to remember a special night. |
