I might say something like “Oof, gravity is kicking in, I gotta go have a seat…”
“Gotta sit on my thinking chair for a bit” or “lemme go listen to my own shit for a while”
Usually in dutch tho, “ff op de denkstoel zitten” or “even naar m’n eigen gezijk luisteren”
Though it’s in Spanish, a good translation would be: The mole is poking out.
‘Turtling’ seems to be similar.
Prairie doggin
“I’m off to lose another game of whack-a-mole!”
Evicting a slug
Poop time
I sometimes say that I have to powder my nose.
I thought that was cocaine use…
Dropping the kids at the pool.
Skate park if there’s no water.
Take the Browns to the Superbowl
Clevelander here…god damnit. I can’t even argue that joke until we get rid of the rapist.
“Gotta see a man about a dog.”
Had a coworker that would go the the bathroom and sit in there for 10 to 15 so I started calling it a “Tony ten-er.”
My ex boss used to say he was going to use the library whenever he had to shit. Don’t know why.
I didn’t think I was old. Now I do.
I take it your boss was Gen X or older?
In the pre cell phone era, it was common for bathrooms to contain various magazines or books.
Uhhhhhh…was that a regional thing? Because I’m old enough to remember bathrooms before cell phones.
I don’t remember magazines/books being left in the bathroom. I only remember bringing them in.
Seinfeld did a whole episode on how gross it was to brings books into the bathroom.

Looks like it’s still a thing…
You know that nobody under the age of 40 has ever ordered that.
Oh, definitely not. I’d say no one under 50 would even be a good bet, but I had to look and make sure this wasn’t a Fruit of the Loom Cornucopia/Berenstein Bears type thing.
Wait why the fuck are they gaslighting us about that cornucopia
The turtle is peaking out it’s head from the shell.
I thought that was a limp penis slowly becoming erect?
Hard insider, “Doing an Olli”. We had a coworker named Oliver and when ever we were at a customer on site he not only showed up late but always went straight for the toilets making us wait even longer.
In Dutch or Flemish at least we say: Ik moet een grote boodschap doen.
Which is a literal translation for: I have to make a big message.
Say it in snowboard.
Two of my favourites are:
- I’m touching cloth.
- Dropping the kids off at the pool.
The chocolate bus honks.
A silly Dutch one is saying you got a fax from Darmstad, which is a city in Germany but also Darm=intestines and Stad=city.
“I gotta go do some paper work” or “I need to get something down on paper” are my two go-tos
Hope everything comes out alright!
Dad?
