The Napoleonic Bores

My history class has been told by our teacher several times that there will be a test at the end of the month.

Teacher: “Alright, everyone, today we’re continuing Napoleon’s rise to power and how it reshaped Europe…”

Student: “Still? We went through this on Monday.”

Teacher: “And did it end with Napoleon in power?”

Student: “I… don’t think so?”

Teacher: “No, we didn’t. Therefore, we march onwards!”

Student: *Sighs.* “Do we need to know this for the test?”

Teacher: “No, of course not. I just wake up every morning thinking, ‘Wow, I’ve got so much free time, why not come to school and monologue about Napoleon for fun?'”

Student: “So… we don’t?”

Teacher: “If I’m saying it out loud, it’s because future-you will regret not listening.”

The teacher got back to teaching, and the student whispered to his friend, “Ugh, why can’t he just speak normal?”

That student got a 4% on the test at the end of the month.
