We will palaver tonight to discuss our options.

Palaver 

Palaver is another word for smoking weed. Much like the story behind 4:20, 'palaver' comes from a group of stoners that met up every Monday night to play cards and discuss The Dark Tower, by S.King. In The Dark Tower, Palaver is explained as a meeting where people chat to one another.

As the monday night meetings evolved the friends would end up discussing more obscure topics, as you do when stoned. These would then turn into silly debates, causing a palaver.

Do you want to join me for a palaver before the pub?

papaverine 

Alkaloid found in the poppy plant and subsequently in raw opium. It is mostly removed from refined opium but is always preset in poppium or poppy tea.

It has neither sedative nor stimulant actions on the user. In fact, it is mostly contradictory to the affects of most of the alkaloids in opium. It is extracted and used to prevent post operational stroke and sometimes for erectile dysfunction.

The doctor decided to suplement the angioplasty with a vasodilator
, papaverine, in the coronary artery bypass surgery so as to widen the veins.

palaverous 

A situation in which there is a lot of palaver.
A state in which a person is causing a lot of bother (usually uneccessarily)/annoyingly bothersome.

All this moving of furniture is creating a palaverous situation.
Oh stop being so palaverous, there's better things I could be doing.

Palversary 

Pets in the same household that sometimes start as adversaries but slowly become pals, some of the time, but can flip back to adversaries any moment. The pet version of frenimy.

Our older cat has begrudgingly accepted the kitten as a worthy palversary.
