may I use your smallest room?

ive noticed (bit of a generliastion i know) that people from the states don't seem to use the word toilet.
in films and everything they always say 'i'm useing the bathroom'
what happens if you have a separate bathroom from your toilet
its all very strange!

s

 

A lot of generalzation.

 

Actually, here in America it is not the bathtub or shower that makes a room a bathroom. We have bathrooms with no bathing facilities at all except for a small hand sink. On the other hand, there are no rooms that have a bathtub and/or shower and no toilet in them.

 

anyone noticed that us brits (if i'm going to generlise i might as well do it on both sides!) have a reputation for being prudish, yet we also seem to make an annocement. 'just going to the toilet' or 'going to the bog'
we seem obsessed with it, or maybe its just me!

never heard the "bog". It's called the loo in Australia.

 

WOULDNT TEND TO AGREE WITH THAT,, COURSE THE AUSSIES IVE MET,, WELL TEND TO GO WHEREVER THERE AT,,AN IT WAS GENERRALLY OUTSIDE..

CAN SOMEONE THAT LIVES IN AUSTRALLIA BUT CAN COME AN VISIT THE U.S. BE CONSIDERED A HILLBILLY???

BUT I DIEGRESS....

 

I do know it's called a Loo in Australia. I've been there. And I have several friends there.

 

it feels like its ok to diegress in a thread about toilets!

s

 

Ain't this an educational thread?

 

its a bonding thread we all have to use the toilet, hey do you think that could prevent wars or something, peace everyone we're all the same when we're sitting on the bog

s

 

We call ours "the outhouse". And there is no sink or shower in there.

 

I say I have to go shoot a missle, or drop off the cosby kids. or plainly, i gotta take a fuckin shit, dont bother me

 

i thought a bog was a marshy place...swampy, dank, full of bog monsters and bugs.

i'd never think of a toilet as a bog.

my hubby just said 'i'd hate to see their toilet!' hehehe

 

wow this post is one of the many enigmas of my mind..
