A verb used to describe the often
disappointing process of searching one's room/home/desk (etc.) or collection of dabows for enough shake to
pack a bowl or roll a joint.
Shake battles are either won or lost. If an
individual finds enough shake to get sufficiently baked then it's a win. However, if the collected shake is smoked and it's not enough, the shake battle is lost.
Can be used in past tense to reference the theater of combat.
