scone with a long o, most words that have o-[insert letter]-e have the long o sound (bone, phone, home, alone, toner, grove, open)

There are a couple of exceptions (gone, done, love) but I think the long-o has a better argument.

Scone like I'm stoned

PS - I don't even think I've ever ate a "scone" so I never have to use or say this word anyway.
