A motion performed by hippies, most typically in a concert or music festival setting, and with the aid of mind expanding drugs. The motion is defined by semi-rhythmic swaying with ones hands tossed up the air.
The setting at last night's Phish concert could be best described as one big Vermont State Dance party.
or...
Patty took a lot of LSD at the concert and proceeded to do the Vermont State Dance all night long.

Get the Vermont State Dance mug.Any nation that has the government "holding the hand" of its citizens by levying lots of taxes, having trade protection, and having many economic regulations. It is used very pejoratively by people that believe in freer markets, private institutions, and tax cuts.
Person A: I advocate for socialized health care. It will benefit us all.
Person B: Nah man, I don't want the U.S. to become a nanny state!

Get the nanny state mug.The largest public university in New York State. It's athletic teams play at the NCAA Division I level, and sport red and white colors. Notorious for it's unethical recruiting of top basketball recruit Jesus Shuttlesworth in the late 90s at the insistence of then-governor Pernell.
He Got Game in a nutshell:
What does matter is Governor is a huge, fanatical basketball fan. He played himself- four years, varsity, at Big State. Good, not great, athlete. He's the biggest supporter Big State has.
...
The governor's made a request that your son, Jesus Shuttlesworth, seriously consider enrolling in his alma mater, Big State.
...
I want you to go to Big State, son. That's why I'm out here.
...
Do you know if you're gonna go to Big State?
...
This right here, it's a letter of intent... for you to sign to go to Big State. Right there. I'll play you, one-on-one. I win, you sign.
...
This September I will be enrolled at Big State University on a full athletic scholarship.

Get the state-owned person mug.A person who is so-called protected or owned by the state, meaning they can't do anything or go anywhere without permission. Often the state-owned person has limited to no rights and therefore treated as second class citizens.
