You learn something new every day...

Today in 2nd hour, I heard some students talking about "coning." Being ignorant of said activity, I decided to ask what "coning" is.

Student: "It's when you order an ice cream cone in a drive thru, drive up, take the ice cream scoop off with your hand and then drive off leaving them with cone. It's so funny."
Me: "So, after all is said and done, you're a few bucks poorer, you have no ice cream cone, and your hand is sticky. Wow, you really pulled one over on the ol' drive thru worker, didn't you?"
