Hookatize 

Hard to describe, the less you do it the stronger the hookatization, when you smoke shisha (hookah) and it's like having your brains smashed out by whatever fruit the shisha flavour is for 3-5 minutes. It's occasional & depends on quality of the tobacco. Hookatizing is the act of smoking a hookah.
