Get the honemug. To ditch or bail out on; to call out. Any act that is considered socially unexceptable. An act that causes one to be temporarily or permanentally rejected by one's social group depending on the severity of the 'hone.' If someone does the said action enough times they would be known as a "honer."
1) Instead of coming to the movies with us, she decided to go see her boyfriend...what a honer!?
2) He told everyone my secret crush, I can't believe he honed on me like that.
3) Her parents gave her a curfew, what a hone!?
