Me when I gotta escape my students!!!!Originally Posted by sarahp
I say the toilet or the loo. The word "restroom" makes me laugh. Who goes in there to rest?
I mainly say bathroom, but depending on my mood I might call it something else!

I always say bathroom
I call it the bathroom.
Depending on circumstances -- bathroom, washroom, toilet, potty, ladies' (men's) room, loo, little girls' (little boys'), sandbox -- or simply "I gotta pee!" I have trouble with "restroom", too, for the same reason.
Uh...the bathroom
I call it the toilet.
But its a ROOM, not an inanimate object

My friend / fav prof ever said either that she needed to see a man about a horse, a car, or a dog. It was really confusing the first time she told me it. But as euphemisms go, its pretty durn cool.
Old military term. My husband sometimes called it the head, depending on who he was with. He spent 22 years in the Air Force.Originally Posted by babyharley

For myself, at home it's usually bathroom. In public or at someone's home it's restroom or ladies room. And, yes, I agree that restroom is a little odd.
My thoughts exactly.Originally Posted by ReesesPBC
If it's at home or someone elses house I say bathroom. If it's at a store or restaurant I say restroom. Saying bathroom anywhere else besides a house doesn't sound right to me because there usually IS no bath
Me too!!Originally Posted by GingersMom
I call it the bathroom...and sometimes I call it another phrase, but I can't say it here. Suffice to say it begins with an "S."
Well to be technical, the object in the 'toilet' is the commode.Originally Posted by Trouts mom

Bathroom, or the potty.
I use a few....informally I say the bathroom, if I'm at work, I say the restroom or ladies room, if I'm talking to my nephew I say do you have to go to the potty?
Other
. I call it the Daisy Room.
