Okay, I upgraded to a nice Android phone last fall. I play with apps and saw the Bic Concert lighter app today. It is free so I downloaded it. It's a silly but fun app that puts an image of a lighter on your cell phone screen so you can wave it around at concerts.I downloaded it and started it only to be hit with the following ominous warning: "This is obviously not a real lighter. However please do not let your children play with this applicaiton. This application should only be used by adults 19 years of age or older. Keep this virtual lighter and all real lighters away from children. No lighter is childproof. There is no substitute for proper adult supervision."
19 years old? You can DRIVE for three years before you a mature enough to have an image of a fake lighter on your screen? What kind of potential lawsuit could warrant this type of warning?
Rant over...back to your regularly scheduled programming.

hahahaha. The apps take away all the fun of burning your thumb at a concert. I'd rather a 16 year old "played with fire" on his phone next to me at a concert than set my hair on fire with the real deal!
How about an app of a finger flipping the bird to flash at other drivers?
I just searched, Orbs, and there is no application like that for Android. However, the phone has a camera so it is easy to take pictures and display them on the screen!
I once had a 'flip card' that had a lot of sayings (your blinker is on, hello, stuff like that. I miss it nowadays.
