Get the uncle in law nephewmug. A law invented by Marc of The Templin Institute and introduced in the video "The Idiotic Strategy That Always Works (But Shouldn't!)":
"Dumb ideas are implemented all the time often with cataclysmic results. But they're implemented in the first place because there was a legitimate expectation of a positive outcome; these ideas fall within the "Zone of Believability." However some ideas are so clearly bad and consequences so obvious that no sensible person would ever consider them; such ideas cross the threshold into the "Zone of Ridiculousness" and no explanation can ever justify such an idea's inherit preposterousness."
Essentially this law dictates that are 2 categories that a dumb idea fit under: Believable (Reasonable chance of a positive outcome) and Ridiculous (Very high chance of 1 or more bad outcomes), and that any idea that fits under the latter category should be flat-out rejected.

Executive Officer: Sir, there's so much wrong with that plan that it breaks Marc's First Law; I can't even list out every possible way that it could fail!

Get the Skitty's lawmug. law school can be good if you keep up and are a swift reader, but it's horrible if you don't. you feel horrible like you could get a bad grade because there's a curve system and then kind of explode in tears.
the law school curve grading system makes me unhappy sometimes. when i was in high school, my good friend once told me "i hope everyone gets an A." this made me love and respect her so much, because she was so hard on herself and was valedictorian. now nobody is allowed to think like that, no matter how hard they work, not everyone can get an A in law school. it's devastating because we all came into law school with so much pride in our abilities and our acceptances into a school we love, and that sort of disintegrates with the curve system sometimes.
