set and setting

A term coined by Timothy Leary that describes psychedelic drug experiences.

The "set" is the state of mind one brings to the trip, and its factors include, current state of mind, previous drug experiences, and mood.

The "setting" refers to the surrounding events and time. These include other people present, location, and time of day.

Set and setting shows how using psychedelic drugs under different circumstances results in different trips.

Man, the first time I did acid I was freaked out, but the second time, a bunch of friends were there and it was really chill. It was a whole different set and setting.

Sottona

Italian slang for a person who would do anything for their partner/ crush, therefore often ends up being played or hurt.

Julia went back to her cheating boyfriend, even after she she found out what he had done. She’s such a sottona.

Seton Catholic Preparatory High School

Catholic school but for crackheads. Uniforms are super strict, and the communal lanyards are important for student's survival. They also blocked iMessage on the wifi, which is some wild shit. Kids who go here are insane, some of the most wild people you'll meet. They manage to be somehow smart and so dumb sometimes.

John: Wow, did you know Marlene goes to Seton Catholic Preparatory High School?
Casey: She'd probably destroy you in any debate, but still fun at parties.

John: Noted.
