"Finish this sentence" re: nukes, exams, and Cabell's post

So, I was reading Cabell's post about exam dreams and nuclear bomb warnings and it made me think of the following game.

Complete this sentence in a way that is true for you:

 

I am a school principal, final exams are happening now, and I receive a call saying that there might be a nuclear bomb in the city.  I would....

Here's my completion:

....kick back and surf the net.  If the bomb is real and goes off, none of us will ever know.  In any other case, why panic?  Besides, I had to sit through sixteen friggin' years of exams.  This crop of school kids should share my pain.

Heh. Glad we're on the same page, there.

Even though I realize (as I know you do) that a nuke, even a big one, wouldn't REALLY reduce a school campus to "monatomic" dust, there were sure times back in grade school when I wished that someone would try that on MY school. Even fairly large-particulate rubble would have been fine, honest. :>
