Teach 247.
[Congratulations Muggle Studies students. You have Professor A.J Crowley to teach you the finer things about the world of muggles. He has his journal open on his desk, into which he dictates into as he wheels into the classroom an old TV and an even older VCR. Sorry he's from 1990, what do you expect?]
You've got exactly three seconds to get through the doors for my class before I send something nasty after you. Just a fair warning, kids!
[That done, and his journal still open, he turns on the TV, static crackling away, 'snow' all over the screen]
Today you're going to learn the ancient muggle art of programming a VCR. You need to get the TV onto a channel, get a blank cassette into the VCR, program it to the channel you want and record five minutes of that specific program. Student who does it fastest gets ten points ot their house or something. I don't care.
[He sits on his chair, putting his feet up on his desk and pulling out a hipflask]
You kids get right on that while I sit here and drink my...butterbeer and grade your efforts.

Re: forever!
[She gives him a resentful look, but opts to keep her mouth shut. The hell if she didn't hate this class, but Crowley was one of the few reasonable instructors at the school, so she had opted for N.E.W.T. level knowing she could coast by on their mutual inability to give a fuck. She puts the finishing touches on her arithmancy assignment before losing her patience with her inept classmates and walking up to the front of the classroom, hooking things up, and recording five minutes of an old monty python skit before turning back to her professor with her arms crossed.]
May I please be excused now? I'd like to get some work done on my history of magic dissertation.

Dead Parrot sketch, nice one. Ten points to your house. [He waves her away] Sure do whatever you like, do you see me caring?
