    Most smokers will give someone a cig if they ask. When someone asks to borrow your lighter there is a good chance they will pocket it after lightning up(more likely out of habit, than a malicious decision to steal it).

      For decades after high school I still had a stash of lighters that weren’t mine. I miss those days. My friends and I called it “the lighter game” and the goal was to be the person at the end of the night with the most lighters. At a party once my buddy pocketed like 6 it was hilarious.

      I always carried a white lighter because of this. No one wants bad luck!
