Getting Lit: 🔥 10 Unique Lighter Facts You Should Know!
Whether you’re a smoker, a toker, or a cannabis broker, lighters play an important role in your herbal experience. Here’s the 10 most burning questions and answers about cool lighters to get you fired up! 🔥💨💨
#1. What is the White Lighter Myth?
The curse of the white lighter is an urban legend stemming all the way back
to the early 1970’s. The mystery and folklore surround the deaths of
several musicians from (what some call) the “27Club”. Believers claim that
each artist had a “white lighter” in their possession upon their untimely
deaths.
The “27Club” includes legendary artists:
🔥 Kurt Cobain
🔥Jimi Hendrix
🔥 Janis Joplin
🔥 Jim Morrison
Even though snopes.com reports this myth to be false, some people still consider the white lighter to be bad luck. Many Reddit marijuana
consumers have stated that white lighters that have been coated in ash
residue from packing a bowl, were more noticeable to authorities which
caused arrests and jail time.
One e-mail 📋survey asked 100 cannabis users
if they had any negative experiences while using white lighters. Some
reported broken bong’s, food poisoning and police incidents, while others
indicated no negative effects or any instances of what they would consider
to be “bad luck”.
