Pylons

.

Are traffic cones/witches’ hats called “pylons” because they “pile on” top of each other to form a nice stack?

… or is it only me that thinks this?

 

note: I had to know, so I looked it up . I have been misinformed all these years.

double note: I don’t think I’m wrong about “smores” (I want some more), but …
“rollmops” (take strips of pickled herring and roll ’em up around a pickled baby onion) and “gesunder” ( a bedpan that goes under the bed) I’m not too sure about.
