Plus, it's amazing that every student at least got placed on the graph. Missing that would be shameful.

I've been told I have deadpan delivery sometimes. I guess it translates to my comments too.

I'm not sure if this is a good thing. But yes, I'm keeping with the tone set by the comment above me.
