DOL
27.  intrepid stern martinet
The intrepid group who had begun their first day of school together found themselves in the same homeroom.  Their teacher was a very stern looking man, Mr. Math Martinet,  who promptly announced that he was also their math teacher.

He told the students, too, that he would tolerate no shenanigans, and then he confiscated a headset from Quincy Querulous, a student in the back of the room who made faces as his headset was taken, opened his mouth as if to argue, and then thought better of it.
“Hey, Pauline, that’s the teacher who stuck out his tongue,” articulated Felicia Fey to her Puerile friend who was silently crying.
