you know.. I hate to be this guy.


There's an invention called a lighter. They work great and have been tested by smokers for at least a hundred years.
Oh I know about lighters. But their convenience over quality in my opinion. Which is fine nothing wrong with using a lighter, but matches really are such a simple and easy way to improve ones smoking experience. And like I think I said I still use the lighter but not for the first third of the smoke. After that it doesn't seem to make as much of a difference. But it really burns cooler, it's super easy to get a good even light even with something like a stuffed and folded flake.

I've used matches when I've forgotten my lighter but I don't always have a place to throw out matches after lighting. Who wants burnt matches all over their car interior? I can't come up with a good reason to use matches instead of a lighter.
