/tank-pla-ting/ noun

A vile prank, originally made famous by the French, where person secretly defecates into the reservoir of a toilet. Generally, much care must be taken to stealthily manipulate the reservoir cover in order to avoid alerting the owner of the toilet or any nearby potential witnesses.
