There are a lot of others on social media who are confused, too, so I guess I’m not alone. The acronym “W.C.” was asked by one person. Some people said things like, “I found out that WC stands for “water closet” at the age of 23.”
No longer are you 27 years old, I see. “I call MINE a bathroom,” another individual said.
We call them common restrooms.
But a water closet isn’t called that. Instead, use the restroom.
While we were on the subject of restrooms, a video on TikTok got popular, drawing attention to the unwritten rule that “every guy knows” when it comes to the urinal. According to stand-up comic Freddy Quinne, there is an unspoken rule among men that they will not use public restrooms. The fact that “no one has ever spoke to us about this and no one has gone out and made the rules” is something that Freddie points out. “We all know where to have a p*ss and where not to,” Nonetheless. He says that if five empty urinals run in a row, the only sensible thing to do is to use the one on the left or the one on the right. According to Freddie, if you go into any of the five urinals and find that they’re all free, you’re stuck using either the one on the far right or the one on the far left. If the first two urinals are already in use, go ahead and use the middle one, number three.
