This is intended to be humor. Don't take it too literally. eating-uncooked-instant-noodles-straight-from-the-packet My sons learned that from me. I began doing it during my second pregnancy when even saltine crackers were not plain enough for my level of nausea. Yes, it's mind bogglingly messy.
This person sounds like an absolute control freak and terrible parent. Oh no, eating junk food in bed? Better... come up with a byzantine punishment?
Has anyone tried the user interface of a burner phone? Recently I tried exchanging numbers with a friend who has a burner phone - a replacement for a lost phone. Yes, good luck with dialling a number or storing a number in the contacts. Even sending a text is a trial of user experience, an intelligence test akin to solving a Rubik's Cube. So it is good to see that a 12 year old can work out some of these functions. I…

Excuse me for assuming, but you must be quite young to not know how to send a text on a burner phone. I can still T9 type like I'm still a freshman in high school, possibly as well as I can type on a smart phone.
I honestly quite liked it, not that I ever want to go back now.

Please don't take it badly, and only answer if you want to, but how old are you? What you call "intelligence test akin to solving a Rubik's Cube" is what absolutely everybody was doing before the release of the iPhone (so up to 2007).

My observation is a genuine one. When was the last time you tried a modern burner phone?
They are not your grandma's Nokia. They will have a brand you have never heard of and the functions will be upgraded to give lame access to WhatsApp or some other internet functionality that was not around before 2007.
The other thing is that you can quickly forget the strange button presses and hacks that went with the original burner phone interface. To take an automotive analogy, sure we hand-started cars once and you can hand-start them now but you don't get the same handle that used to come with them.

I used to do that at school, but I'd add the flavoring packet. Ahh nostalgia.
