If I'm paying that much, I better get a push-button starter!

That's so much more plausible than half the engineering ideas I see on Facebook. You could probably put that on kickstarter and make a mint. Actually, you could probably actually make them and sell them.

Oops, scratch that kickstarter idea. You would get sued by the people who are actually selling these.

Fire starting? Isn't there an app for that?

The old Samsung Galaxy Note 7s was pretty good at starting a fire - just couldn't predict when. Should be on EBay.

You guys hit it right on the head.

You should have seen my 19 year old daughter and 5-6 of her same aged friends last year trying to start a fire in my backyard. Three of the friends were boys, and despite a plentiful supply of kindling and seasoned firewood, they couldn't get a fire going to save their life.

I had to send my 12 year old out to save the day.

I am sure we will see a partially burned box in a fire pit after the group runs out the 3 and tries to use the box to start a fire.
