As someone who used to smoke and had a Zippo, absolutely this. If it was pretty windy, the flame may stay lit but it wouldn't hold still enough to light anything.

It has been over a decade since they shut down MegaUpload and raided his house in NZ.

Nope I have not. I don't have kids. I have heard your comment said by many other teachers around too. I don't understand how it got to be like this. If people really don't want the responsibility, time, money, emotional and physical investments of raising kids, they shouldn't be having them.

I don't quite understand why this is still a thing? Back when I was in school in the late 2000s, phones were banned. Couldn't even bring it out even if you were going to use it as a calculator. Immediate 3 hour detection if you were seen with one. I got one for calling my mother to pick me up because I needed to go to the doctor.

I don't understand how between now and then, the rules seemed to lax.

Hate it for the current day but gives off strong nostalgia vibes
