Get the United States of Americamug. Stop calling us a party school it's dead on the weekends unless you're in a frat (and even then only PIKE is the only one where people get wonky sloshed). At least we're not Central. We're good at any sport that has a stick in it (hockey/golf) and also football. It snows a lot but at least you know when it's coming. Great professors who know how to teach and know how to prepare you for tests. Overall it's a good university for what you're paying and it's pretty easy to get in (not as easy as GVSU, Oakland, or SVSU but north of 80 percent nonetheless). People who go to school here care a whole lot more about it than at a metropolitan area university in this state.
Person 1: Ferris State University is the worst school in Michigan!
Person 2: You just say that cuz you go to Central and you want to feel less stupid than me. GO DAWGS!

Get the Dream State Compensationmug. STATE-DEPENDENT MEMORY or STATE-DEPENDENT LEARNING is the phenomenon through which memory retrieval is most efficient when an individual is in the same state of consciousness as they were when the memory was formed.
The term is often used to describe memory retrieval while in states of consciousness produced by psychoactive drugs – most commonly, alcohol, but has implications for mood or non-substance induced states of consciousness as well.
Unlike CONTEXT-DEPENDENT MEMORY, which involves an individual's external environment and conditions, state-dependent memory applies to the individual's internal conditions.
For example, while context-dependent memory might refer to the idea that taking a test in the same room that an individual studied in will make it easier to retrieve those memories, state-dependent learning refers to the idea that if an individual always studied for a test while slightly caffeinated, it will most likely be easiest to recall what they studied during the test if they are at a similar level of caffeination.

2: "Man, that's probably due to my state-dependent memory, it is a habit written in there, I use to get pissed off a lot. And you know what? That's really pissing me off."
