Thinking in absolute isolation, without any visual or aural aids, influences or clues. Usually done in a special isolation tank, developed by John Lilly, where the tanker lies naked and alone for long periods of time. Such process might interest biologists, writers and psilosophers.
Watch Ken Russell's film "Altered States" for a great take on the subject.

taking it slow 

When someone starts a long winded story leading to the land of boredom and nowhere with "i was with this girl", and then tells us about how nothing happened with her.
So I was at red jacket, no wait MJ, no wait it was Uhots, and I was with this girl and we were taking it slow
1: To take a shit in the tank of a toilet. Ususally done on the day you move out, or at the house of someone you hate.

2: To fill the toilet tank with 20+ packs of jello.
I'm tanking the toilet, so we can leave right after.

Taking One for the Team 

When you and your friends have just smoked a delious bowl and your glass piece is clogged with weed, making it impossible to take a monster rip and someone decides to make a stand and unclog the piece. They do so by sucking in as violently as possible sucking in any buds that may be clogging your inhaling mechanism. He then makes a face of disgust and opens his mouth and shows his tongue. His tongue is covered in ash. He has sacraficed himself in order for the smoking session to run faster and more effiecent.
-"Dude, whats going on, I barely got anything off that hit"
-"I was afraid of this."
-"Afraid of what?"
_"I must 'Take one for the team'"
-"You brave little soldier"
