What do you say when you leave a room to answer nature's call when someone asks "Where are you going"?

Question

Probably most people would say something like "I'm going to the bathroom". However, some of us are a little more creative and say things like "I'm going to Grunt City" or "I've got to see a man about a dog," (my father's favorite) or "I'm going to bleed my lizard." What is your personal favorite?

Answer 3

"i gotta go drop the cosby kids off at the pool"

i dont get it, "see a man about a dog??"

Answer 4

Answer 5

"I'm following the call of the wild".  

Actually, I just made that up. It's more likely to be "I'm off to powder my nose" just because it's so corny that I think it's funny.

It'd be funnier if I were a big booffy bloke, But that's too much trouble to go to for one little joke.

Answer 6

Strain the spuds (potatoes) or water the cattle as we say in Ireland.

Answer 7

I don't say anything, I just make the American Sign Language letter "T" and shake it.

If then the person doesn't get it then I do the bathroom dance in front of them.  

Answer 8

I sometimes steal a line from "The Last Boy Scout":

"I'm off to bathroom. Do you wanna help? Doctor says I shouldn't lift anything heavy..."

It's not my own, but it gets a laugh

Answer 9

It depends on the company I am with, if I am by myself, I say o-o-o-o-o

Answer 10

Answer 11

Going to drop the kids off at the pool.

Answer 12

Answer 13

My grandmother used to say she was "going to see a man about a job" which is a long the lines of the dog comment, lol.  I usually just say "restroom"- if you feel the need to ask, well, sometimes you get what you ask for.

Answer 15

Er, I generally just say I'm going to the toilet. Yep, us Aussies are pretty blunt or something I guess.

Sometimes I like to mix it up a bit, and I say I'm going to "the place." or the Thunderbox.

I like the Thunderbox actually, but sometimes it's just not appropriate, haha. It's always appropriate in outdoor drop toilets in the middle of nowhere though.

And that's enough of  that.
