  1. "i have to relieve myself"

    "take a dump"

    "drop off the kiddies at the pool"

    "pinch a loaf"

    "cut a t**d"


  2. I want to go to bathroom/ washroom/ toilet; please do not talk dirty things in my absence about me as you people do with others.

  3. Excuse me, i need to freshen up....thats the best....

    or even Excuse me, i'll be back in a few minutes...

  4. If you are in a more formal situation with people who are going to judge you according to how you say things--like if you are with a powerful boss you want to stay on the good side of--say "excuse me, I need to use the facilities" or "pardon me while I look for the men's room" (I'm assuming you are male).  If you are with close friends, you can get a little less formal and just say (for your friends' hearing only, you don't want to announce it to the whole room) that you need to go to the bathroom.  Depending on how informal and how easy-going your association is with your friends, you can just "gee, I gotta take a leak" (even if you've got to solid waste you need to get rid of), or "where's the john?" or "going to the men's."

  5. i think you should say excuse me please.

  6. "My shoes are a bit dry." (I need to go and splash them).

    "Does my nose look shiney to you?" (I think I need to go and power my nose).

    Call for an "Administrative Break"

    "Where is your Privvy?"

    "Time for a pitstop."

    "You know, I think you only ever borrow Beer."

    "My back teeth are floating. Where is your Jaques?"

    "Excuse me; I must just go and sink the Bizmark."

    "Segmentation Error; (Core Dump)". (IT industry specific)

  7. I will be back in a minute, this is all you need to say.

  8. You just say excuse me . . . that's always enough said.  No need to announce your bodily functions.

  9. Don't say "I'm just going for a s**t"!

  10. Excuse me, i need to go to the washroom.

    Excuse me, i need to freshen up.

  11. You could say "hold on. I have to go drain the lizzard".

  12. u can say it that I will be back to just fresh myself

  13. "Excuse me, please. I'll be back in a few minutes."

    That's all you need to say. I believe that it is in bad taste to publicly announce a call of nature. Just go do what you have to do. There is no need for specifics.
