The BMW Lighter is a handheld naphtha-type fire starter. It prominently displays the logo of BMW, an abbreviation of “Bayerische Motoren Werke” (Bavarian Motor Works), a German company and manufacturer of automobiles and motorcycles. When the lighter was first introduced on Homestar Runner, a "real world" BMW lighter was unavailable as The Brothers Chaps attest to on the DVD commentary for "dragon." There are now several styles of BMW lighter available.
The BMW Lighter has appeared in seven toons.
The first time the lighter is seen is in guitar, in which Strong Bad holds it up at the end. As an Easter egg, watch it scorch The Paper. | |
The second time is in dragon, in which Strong Bad uses it to burn Strong Sad's drawing of a dragon. | |
The third time is in privileges. It is first mentioned on the list of "Medallion Gold Plus Club" privileges. Here it is refered to as "Beamer Lighter." "Beamer" is a slang term for a BMW. | |
Then, still in privileges, it actually appears in an Easter egg. The Cheat uses it to torch Homestar's lame guitar magazines. | |
The fourth time is in Strong Bad Is In Jail Cartoon, in which The Cheat uses it to light the bundle of Fthoom-Bang bottle rockets. | |
The fifth time is in pom pom, in which Strong Bad uses it during his attempt to poke Pom Pom with a pin while he's on fire. | |
The sixth time, and the first time referred to as 'BMW' by Strong Bad is in other days, in which Strong Bad uses it to burn up the letter that Bubs sends him about how he owes him money. | |
The seventh time is in long pants in which The Cheat uses the lighter to burn Homestar's Daisy Dukes. |
