Oo. Time for my "terrible recruiter" story. This was back in the 90s, so the issues then were not the issues now.

My teacher (genuinely cool guy, but a veteran) brought in an army recruiter to talk to us. He ended literally every clause with "'n stuff." Like this:

"If you want to join the army 'n stuff, you gotta get real fit 'n stuff. You gotta get going with a good exercise program 'n stuff. But we'll get your fitness to a new level 'n stuff, plus pay for college 'n stuff."

Basically, it made me decide that I wasn't stupid enough to sign up.

Maybe your teacher brought the recruiter in to make you realize exactly that 'n stuff.
