Term: GANTLET

Definition: Gantlet is a punishment where a person is made to run between two rows of soldiers who hit them with lashes. It can also mean a series of difficult challenges or problems that a person has to face.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Gantlet (also spelled gauntlet or gantlope) refers to a former military punishment where the offender was forced to run between two rows of soldiers who would lash them as they passed. It can also refer to a series of severe troubles or difficulties, an ordeal.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
