Apple snuck a weed joke into its developer conference presentation

Ok Apple.

You didn't think we'd get through Apple's World Wide Developer conference without a few half-baked weed jokes, did you?

On Monday Apple's Craig Federighi made an easy weed joke while announcing High Safari, the latest version of macOS.

The name is "fully baked," he quipped. And because he couldn't resist, he also claimed that Safari on High Sierra "smokes the competition."

Apple has a history of working weed jokes into its high-profile presentations. In 2014, Federighi joked that Apple's development team had tossed out "OS X Weed" as a name alternative for OS X Yosemite.

In this year's case, however, High Sierra's no joke.
