To utterly and totally destroy the punchline of a joke so as to make it completely devoid of any sort of humerous value. Often, the act of CantonING (the verb form) is funny, because the person who catoned the joke often is not aware they have done so.
This term comes from the town of Canton in Central Illinois where people have a tendancy, due to life in such a provincial area, to miss high-brow humor and explain simple jokes with what they see as...jokes.
"He totally Cantoned that joke."
Example of Cantoning:
person "A": "This room smells like 15 kinds of ass."
person "B": "Yeah, almost like 20 kinds of ass!"
Example 2:
Person "A": "What's green and flies?"
Person "B": "Superpickle!"
*laughter ensues*
Canton person: "Yeah, hahaha, or super green bell pepper."
*everyone pauses and stares, looking awkwardly at one another*
Canton person: "Sorry, I work at Hy-Vee."

Canton is one of the higher populated city in ohio and also one of the roughest. Poeople claim that its infested with "hicks" sorry people. All the amish and hillbillies left to go to places like dover and wooster. Whats really in canton is ofcourse the Pro Football Hall of Fame which everyone knows about and a few unheard of factories, not really important. downtown is shitty because most houses are boarded up and crack heads live there. There are also plenty of gangs and hearing about a shoting or robery isnt ever a shock or surprise. Canton has some of the ruddest people ever, but it also has some great people.
Welcome to canton aka lil detriot.

to agree with skuzzi, canton is not to be confused with North Canton. Canton is a ghettotastic city that is about 50 miles south of cleveland. 51 weeks out of the year nobody really cares about it and 1 week out of the year (last week in June), a bunch of weird football fanatics come to town and the regular residents try to be on vacation that week.
I went to Canton to pick up my friend, and they were arresting his nieghbors for possesion.

A male, often Hispanic, with the utterly annoying innate ability to convince members of the fairer gender to perform shameless sexual acts upon them, often with little or no effort on the part of the cantone. Often these preternatural abilities manifest at a very young age. The earlier the cantone’s abilities appear, the more powerful a contone he will grow up to be.
My boy was putting the moves on Anthony's little girl the other day and he's not even three yet! That's RIGHT! My boys going to be a master cantone before he's in pre-school!

Canton is approximately 20 miles south of Akron and 60 miles south of Cleveland. Canton is the home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and Marilyn Manson. A stick in the mud city, with a laughable downdown district, eclipsed by even Akron. Not to be mistaken with North Canton, which is a tropical paradise.
I got lost in Canton once, wow was that one big ghetto.
