How To Tell If Gold Is Real With A Lighter?
Just fire away at the gold piece you want to test, basically. If the gold melts and you see a different material, it's a gold-plated piece. If the gold darkens in color, it's not gold or not purely gold. If it gets brighter, it's pure gold.

Depends on the type the pocket knife you own. If it’s a shutting knife with a liner or frame lock like mine, you should be able to find a part at the top of the handle, just below the blade, that moves when the blade is out.
Usually, it’s saw-toothed so you can grip it better. That’s the liner or frame lock. Liner and frame locks work the same – the only difference is if it’s a liner, it has a separate lining that acts as the lock, while if it’s a frame, the frame itself is the lock.
To close both liner and frame locks, just find that saw-toothed portion that moves and push it out of the way of the blade and fold the blade simultaneously. Easy as that.

How Long Does Drunk Last?

There’s no one answer to this since the time you remain drunk can vary depending on so many factors.
The biggest factor is your drinking pace – how much you’ve drunk and how fast you drank them. Our bodies eliminate about 3 to 4 ounces of alcohol in an hour, but if you’re thinking more than that, then your body can’t keep up and will have to work even after you stopped drinking to regulate your blood alcohol concentration (BAC). The faster you drink, the higher the BAC, and the longer you stay drunk.
Other factors:
Your weight – the amount of blood in a bigger person can accommodate more alcohol than a smaller person, affecting the BAC.
Food intake – food can slow down the absorption of alcohol and lower your BAC because the faster alcohol is absorbed into your bloodstream, the higher the BAC becomes, and again, the higher the BAC, and the longer you stay drunk.
Other factors include your tolerance and health.

At least two weeks, or as long as recommended by your tattooist.
Getting your tattoo wet for a short while is fine, and showering is necessary for hygiene, so you can shower as normal – even better if you have a waterproof tattoo film.
Soaking it is a different story and is a big no-no – absolutely no swimming or bath for at least two weeks.
New tattoos are basically open wounds, and exposing wounds to excess moisture increases the risk of infection.
