Basketeering 

v. - This is the act of handing out baskets to children for them to place their personal belongings into while they go swimming at a public pool. Back in the day, (2) girls were hired to do this job for minimum wage, however the job is now terminated. The recent economic downfall was first blamed for these (2) young ladies to lose their professions, but it was eventually determined that this job deserved less than minimum wage, actually no pay at all. Basketeering still occurs today, but it is done by anyone, even the children themselves, which is why stolen property has increased 200% since 2006.
TugBoat: "I'm missing $15 from my basket, i believe somebody stole it."
Larry: "Mergum bought all the other kids $15 worth of soda this morning, i bet it was him, i'll ask."
Mergum: "No, my dad gave me $15 to take my girlfriend out to dinner."
Chrissie: "You're 10 years old, you can't even drive."
Mergum: "You guys suck at basketeering."

When your super mega stoned wasted and a little bit drunken- boozed, you are "Baseted"
"I thoroughly enjoy the euphoric sensation of puffing on a extremely large eloquently hand-crafted organic outdoor raised delightfully pungent female skunk filled 2 paper spliff then endevouring to throw-back a few Patron Silver's, it's a crystal clear, pure ultra-premium tequila.Soft and light, characterized by a fresh, smooth taste, without the flavor of oak. Delicious neat or on the rocks, Patron Silver is also the perfect ingredient to a mixed cocktail or margarita. So in conclusion of my statement the combanation of the juicy two papery and smooth simultaneous shots of tequila have put me in a state where I feel quite Baseted!"

basketeer (bas-kuh-TEER)
noun

A practitioner of radical interdependence; one who rejects the lone-hero model of activism in favor of methodically interlacing disparate struggles, communities, and ideas into a coherent fabric of resistance and repair. The basketeer operates from the premise that a society's strength, like a basket's, derives not from its individual strands but from how artfully they are woven together.
To be a basketeer is to understand that your liberation is tangled up with mine and is further tangled up with the planet's, and to act accordingly: stitching, connecting, holding the tension until the whole thing holds.

Those basketeers really came to kick some systemic injustice ass! The came, they wove, they resisted, they rebuilt, they waved oppression away. Slay.
