I'm not doubting that works, smokers can't help but to talk to each other, maybe it helps ignore any self-guilt of destroying their bodies... besides, asking for a light is like having her give you the lock-in prop. No way I could display that I'm a smoker; I lose all respect for a girl if she smokes or asks for a light.
I'll take an observation about her any day over "got a light."
