pronounced soCRAtez, this drink is a combination of a screwdriver with natural light.
John 3:17- and God came unto the orange grove and said unto the people "make this into juice and combine it with the cheapest of vodkas". the people rejoiced.
Socrates, the famous philosopher in one of his little known works "where God could use a little help" demonstrated the logic of adding natural light to screwdrivers.
1. orange juice and vodka are great.
2. natural light is great.
3. if you add one great thing to another you get something fantastic.
4. it therefore follows that adding natural light to orange juice and vodka will be fantastic.

The privilege a law student asks for so that he is not called on in class for the day. A student may give either an excuse or a justification for this request, preferably by email ahead of time, or in person right before class. The term is called "Socratic" immunity because most professors in law school use the Socratic method of teaching, grilling a student with questions for ten minutes of class or more.
Socratic immunity is critical because most law school professors count class participation as at least a small factor in a student's grade.

A shouting match between a conglomeration of tryhard honor students. Usually the bout is over some particular novel or literary work and is characterized by two or three straight-A students yelling the most and loudest, while the others simply nod and parrot what is said.
During the socratic seminar, all the other students wanted to punch that one girl who would never shut the hell up.

Quiet kid: "Really? I don't know shit?" *Opens backpack*
