*FACEPLAM!*

I know. Dammit, QMx is beshmirching our fandom and our brand!

[AZSneed]

Are they doing it for the fans or to make money?






Silly me.

Dear QMX:

First: I want you to know that I am typing this letter with my middle finger.
Second, a word of advice: If you piss off enough fans, you'll stop making enough money.
Third: You are now pissing me off.

Our new Spokes Woman. TELL IT TO THEM!

I think Taimdala should run for office.

Usually I'm with you guys, but I actually think this one is kinda cute. I might even have bought it if I smoked, or if I ever wanted a lighter whose fuel evaporates as if evaporating fuel is going out of style (Zippos do that).

But for a Zippo enthusiast, I don't see a problem with this one: nice design, could even be said to be a prop - it's the kind of lighter Firefly Shipworks might have sold as merchandising during the war.

I believe it's a desperate attempt to find an unturned stone in the cheap crap market.
Cost of a single colour screenprinted, unbranded Chinese lighter? a Dollar tops, shipped.

Is QMX then condoning smoking? Did any of the lead characters smoke?

Where's the connection to Firefly?
