-------------- i don't get it.

A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.

A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.

The setup of the joke refers to

noun

8. a concentrated form of something; a product of concentration:
"a juice concentrate."

while the punchline refers to

verb

1. to bring or draw to a common center or point of union; converge;
direct toward one point; focus:

thanks.... for maybe 3 days, i've been wondering
how natural it is (in English) to use the Root form of verb as in :

----- * I tried making orange juice from concentrate,

to mean [ i tried making O. J. by my powers of thinking (concentration) ]

Did Shakespear or KJV use Root forms of verbs in this way ?>

i guess in French it's common :

il vient de partir

J'ai hate de travailler avec vous ...

J'ai hâte de vous revoir et vous remercie de votre aimable attention ...

No idea, but googling "any verb can be nouned" turns up plenty of links,
starting with (at least for me)
https://flavoracle.tumblr.com/post/187008716302/bang-and-pant-can-both-be-verbs-but-they-can

A much more complex question is: which specific instances are generally
considered natural (e.g. "pass" in the context of American football) -
as opposed to the sort of tortured language mostly limited to non-native
speakers and jokes like this - and why is the line drawn there?

Think, Cogitate, Infer, Remember, Ruminate, Concentrate ... are harder (to become Nouns) because these actions are abstract and SUBJECTIVE.

Eats (as Noun) as in UberEATS still sounds cute and funny today, but maybe we'll get used to it within 10 years.

(Grub, Grubs)

Until they air one of those "does that mean you can eats it?" ads, which
were presumably just intended as "we expect this portrayal (and thus our
product/service) to be memorable", but come off more as "we expect this
portrayal to be something that you identify with". Which is /terrible/
when said portrayal is abject stupidity or some other strong negative.
