180. One of my closest friends in grad school had a complete meltdown over the proofreading process...
That part gave me very little trouble, since I actually once worked as a proofreader in a print shop, but it was arduous for a lot of people. To me they were just another set of threshold guardians...

My friend ended up yelling that if she had a rifle in her possession she would -- ugh, I can't even write it. I love the gal, but that was over the top and around the bend.

Bottom line was she eventually managed to pass even this trial and defended her dissertation several months after I did mine.

But she'll never set foot on that campus again. :eyes:
