Their job is to encourage you to do WHATEVER before the world burns, faggot, maybe even try to do a better job at teaching than they apparently are for a generation you'd have better luck engaging with. But nah, it's just beneath you, their enthusiasm and good will is typical of such charlatans and simpletons. Good on you, OP, for rising above. Enjoy your scotch, gentle-man.
