High Times Inventions

From the Book Of senses.

These are the inventions purely made while being high on marijuana.They are strictly made to make communication easier and are not offensive at all.These inventions are only understood by very inteligent people,or people under the influence of marijuana(because of the increasement in creativity),anybody else will think that they are pointless or they use the defence mechanism of calling it "offensive" because they dont understand it.
some sober dumb person:"I dont get the point of all these words that you guys use,its so offensive"

Nik:"No theyre not,theyre just High Times Inventions"

incentivize

Verb, apparently. American version of the much simpler root word "incent".

Why they can't seem to cope with this much simpler word, I don't know.. obviously doesn't sound important enough.
From dictionary.com (yes, that's right, it's listed - to make matters worse, their definition of "incent" says, "to incentivize"):

"This bill will help incentivize everybody to solve that part of the problem” (Richard A. Gephardt)."

How absurd is that. Gah.
