What if you have a gif of a flame on your phone screen eh?

What then?

:colbert:

One of the earliest hits in the App Store back in 2008 was a Zippo app with a virtual flame. It would even use the accelerometer/orientation sensors to keep the flame oriented correctly.

Also: iBeer. Remember iBeer?

Haven't read all the replies yet but a full screen smart phone video of a bright flame flickering can look pretty dang realistic.

Serious question....

Is there anything more lame than putting up a cell-phone instead of a lighter at a concert? I mean, putting up a light isn't exactly cool in my book either either, but it just seems the ultimate in "I'm a douchebag retarded millenial me-me-me-me!" is putting up something else instead. At least there is some history behind the lighter.


... You went to a concert where something is held up. Who is the loser?
