Naw, they're mostly adults as I teach at a community college, but I was also exaggerating. Most of them listen politely, with about a third actually paying attention.
And I make it clear in the first day that questions like "will this be on the test" are the fastest way to lose an instructor's goodwill and patience, so most of them aren't dumb enough to say that out loud.
