| We all know who they are they're the ones willing to go the extra mile and make the rest of us slackers look bad. |

I remember hearing that if one wanted to find the quickest and most efficient way to do something, say an operation on an assembly line (and presuming that there was some leeway in how steps were done there), then go observe the laziest of workers. I think that there's more than a bit of truth to that.
I also believe that some teachers are given to staying up all night, or close enough, to prep their classes. I favour the once over just ahead of class.
Am I lazy? Do I short change my students? No on both accounts; I just believe that some are naturally gifted, and it shows in their classes' spontaneity and enthusiasm.
Annoying, indeed! And...keeners need our help! |

| Do those dumbass foreigners on TV who do kid's shows constitute "keener?" Or, are they just willing to abandon all self-respect and act like retarded English speaking elves in order to make some good cash? Hmm. |

I think it's funny you call them "foreigners". |

In my experience they laugh at them. They love it, and they laugh at it. Keeners are hilarious and greatly (kinda) appreciated by them. |
