gooning

A form of legal kidnapping in which troubled teenagers are forcibly transported to boot camps, boarding schools, wilderness therapy, or similar rehabilitation facilities, often conducted by a group of intimidating men ("goons") under cover

Hired by their parents, these people bring them, usually by plane, to the wilderness program. The official name for this is transporting. The slang term is gooning, as in taken by goons.

Within what's known as the secure transport industry, it's called "gooning." Brawny men show up under the cover of darkness and force a teenager into a vehicle, taking them against their will to a boarding school, foster home or treatment center.

A form of masturbation that involves edging ("maintaining sexual arousal without reaching orgasm") for a long period of time, resulting in a hypnotic, trance-like state. This is sometimes enhanced with a drug, such as amyl nitrite, nitrous

Explanations of "gooning" often reference accessing a primal, implicitly male state of sexual excitement and indulgence, a kind of physical speaking in tongues through masturbation.

Edging, gooning's close cousin, is a bit more time-consuming and involved, but it comes with the promise of a more powerful and gratifying ejaculation at the end.
