                It’s where I rest my brain from the stupid at work. Being able to sit on a nasty commode with my nethers exposed is a bonus.

              The Middle French word ‘toile’ (“cloth”) had a diminutive form: ‘toilette’, or “small piece of cloth.” This word became ‘toilet’ in English, and referred to a cloth put over the shoulders while dressing the hair or shaving.

              Got em

        You don’t live in your kitchen

        You don’t rest in your toilet

        Unless, like I say, throwing a whitey

          oh I finally get what you’re saying. You’re taking issue with calling that room “rest” room instead of “toilet”

          but seeing as “toilet” literally means “a small piece of cloth” - if we’re going to go down that path, why are you calling both the room and it’s commode a piece of cloth?

          Oooooh it’s just Americans with their funny words for things.

          Obviously they mean lavatory, toilet, loo, shitter, bog, water closet, facilities, tile palace, WC, khazi, ceramic throne of dreams, privy, latrine, etc.

          It’s restful because you’re not watching… At least without a consent higher than “let’s have sex”

      There are many reasons toilets are called the restroom dated back in history. However these days it’s mostly just considered a polite way of taking care of one’s business, without projecting to a partner that you may be taking a massive duce.

      are you not familiar with houses having attached bathrooms in the master bedroom?

      Its a thing here in NA for suburban homes, and for houses in europe to some degree im guessing.
