institutionalized

1. What a military service person becomes when they've re-enlisted so many times, and have spent so many years in the service, they no longer feel they would be safe or can make a life outside the military installation's fence. They also can no longer relate to civilian life-style or understand it anymore. 2. What a convicted criminal becomes when they've spent so many years behind bars away from life outside the prison walls.
1. After 8 years in, we knew our son had become institutionalized when he expressed he didn't want to get out because he felt military service was the only guarantee to a secure and stable future. 2. After spending 20 years in prison, Lazy Eyed Larry was paroled, but he had a hard time adjusting to life on the outside because he had become institutionalized.

Insultation

An alternative form to the noun of 'insult', mainly to be used when one feels creative and would like to come off as being more smart than they actually are. Taken after 'accumulation', 'confiscation', etc.

Institutional Evil

Acts of evil often done among an organization, done with little or no sympathy and a lack of humanity due to its repeated process, like a system, or a daily job.
The ISIS organization executes men, women and children on a daily basis. Execution of humans has become so systematic, it is no different than a daily routine. What they do is considered Institutional Evil.

Inspirational hug

It's like those slow motion hugs in movies where they're all running up to each other and there is music playing in the back ground then it ends in a tackle hug with you both falling into one of those colourful ball pit things with cans of silly string and sherbet!
Person 1: I'm feeling really low today :(
Person 2: I think you need an inspirational hug! *pulls out silly string and sherbet. Leads you to a ball pit, and puts inspirational music on in the background*

A: Aww man, the sidewalk is blocked up by 5 people all wearing the same green shirt, this can only mean Greenpeace is engaging in institutionalized panhandling again.
B: Quick, pretend you're on your cell phone and whatever you do do not make eye contact.
