To go for a wee-wee?

[TimeAtTheBar]

DH has just mocked me mercilessly for this. We are at home. I said I’m going for a wee-wee. He says I always say this even in company. I beg to differ as sometimes I say tinkle or Jack Dash or Jimmy Riddle or off for a piss.

I am an announcer though. I’ve caught myself lately sneezing and then saying ‘sneeze’ instead of ah choo or excuse me. Also yawn.

It’s not just me though, right? Normal to excuse yourself in this fashion. Yeah ok, wee-wee might be the nadir but it’s a perfectly normal thing to say?

MIL says wee wee and poo poo with a coy smile every time. Just off for a wee wee or had to poo poo then describes the amount and consistency 🙈. DH says she's always found going to the loo funny. Weird!

Haha I also say 'wee wee outside' to the dogs

Plop plop 😂😂😂

A wax or a pop.

It’s a marvellous example of onomatopoeia!

I don't use it but in this case it's useful shorthand for 'immediately killed any sexual desire'.

Which both wee-wee and prattling on about one's body functions would do to me.

It was supposed to be a 'waz' or a 'poo' 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️ damn typos

Waz is popular in the region I live in. As is “dropping the kids off at the pool”

I say it too OP, you’re not alone!

Although weirdly it’s ‘wee wee’ for me but ‘wee wees’ for the dog 😂

Yes 🤣 fellow West Midlander?

No, I'd just say I'm going to the loo. No need for specifics as too much information (do you also announce I'm going for a poo-poo ).

I can't stop laughing. Never realised that my husband and I are both massive 'announcers' ("Oooh, police!").

Poor DS has no chance...

The wee-wee announcements are weird, but sneezing and then saying “sneeze” would make me want to tear your head off.

@ijustcouldntthinkofausername merseyside!

What actual adult states any of those phrases??

My husband used to announce to the family he was going for pop pops ie shit …I still shudder when I think about it 25 years later !! He also refers to the loo as toilet..absolutely hate that word!

Omg we are so uncouth here we go for a piss or a shite followed by the inevitable l'd give it 5 mins if I was you.

This thread has made me realise the biggest friendship bond for me is shared humour.

Oh and I have just remembered its not uncommon for someone to come racing in from work or wherever announcing quick I'm touching cloth or I have a turtle head.

That's funny! I knew someone who use to say, "I'm going where the Queen goes alone". My mum used to call the lavatory, 'The Houses of Parliament'. I juanst excuse myself for a minute if I am in company.

I've no idea what you mean by a 'choo' when you sneeze. Yawns should be quiet and always covered, there's nothing worse than loud yawns.

Going for a wee is fine.

Just for context, we were watching a tv prog. So it was pause the tv, stand up, announce I’m going for a wee-wee. Not just a random shout across two rooms to let him know.

🤣🤣🤣

I'm an announcer - normally after I've spent half hour whinging that I need a wee and cba moving!

'just' not 'juanst'! I don't know where that came from.

Does sound odd, like something a 5 y.o. would say.

Me and DH say...

I'm going to loo
or
I need a Number 1
or
I'm bosting for a piss

Depends on our mood at the time - or the situation.

I don’t think it’s something that needs to be announced… especially a strange thing to say if having people round 😂

Omg that is just TMI.
Why would she even think this is normal to speak like this or to think you are remotely interested in her toilet habits.
Some people are just barking mad.
