I wasn’t just looking…
Well you have a point.
But in my defense…
I need a lighter for da front porch, da back deck, and 2 for ma truck!
Then, my WIFE!!! has a real bad habit of “borrowing” one of my lighters, and then promptly misplacing it.
(Probably has to do with the “cigars” she smokes on occasion…)
My son bums lighters off me now and again as well………permanently.
My solution?
I have my four….…….porch, deck and truck, that everyone knows not to touch, on penalty of slow death.
I keep three hidden as backups. (Fuel is also kept hidden)
I keep three in a cigar box in my office that wifey borrows, and that others can use, etc.
BTW, this phenomena isn’t limited to lighters at my house.
Same for scissors, tape, staplers, rulers, pens, reading glasses, etc.
I live with my wife, daughter, grand daughter, and a high maintenance, somewhat dangerous female dog (German Shepard Queensland Heeler mix)
I’m out numbered and obviously getting punished for sins committed in a previous life….
