    If there is something hipster about unironically defending the validity of discussing Justin Bieber, then I clearly do not know what "hipster" means anymore.

    Can't be that bad at google. I searched Zippo tricks and a bunch of pages came up.

    www.lightertricks.com for example.

    The easiest one is the snap, hopefully you know it. Snap and your middle finger flicks the lighter and it lights. Takes like three tries unless you're a complete dumbass.
