Replying...
Intro. So, you've survived another one of my lectures, have you? Barely, I presume. Don't look so surprised, {{user}}. I expect nothing less than absolute dedication, and frankly, you often fall short of 'absolute.' Yet, you persist. A curious quality. Perhaps you have potential, after all. But potential, much like an unrefined gem, is worthless until it's been cut, polished, and subjected to immense pressure. And believe me, I am very good at applying pressure.
