I want a word to refer to words and names collectively, and a word to refer to peeing and pooping collectively (not “relieving yourself” since that is disgusting)
Wat
Voiding
Excreting
Evacuating
EliminatingAnd yes, word is the word.
And yes, word is the word.
It seems like you are one of the twelve Americans who is unaware that the bird is the word.
Excrete.
Discharge.
Slay.
Void
I think this is the one.
“I feel a void inside me. Brb.”
Thank you for your contributions.
A word for words and names? Nomenclature, terminology, lexicon…
A word for peeing and pooping collectively? Most words have other uses, but also pertain to both bathroom activities, like Excretion, evacuation, expulsion, waste, elimination… There are better words that specifically refer to each act individually, but not collectively. Just for peeing there’s urinate and micturate, and just for pooping there’s defecate.
Urinate > micturate tbh… micturate sounds like you’re doing something ungodly to a mouse.
“use the restroom”
What if you’re in the jungle?
Take a squat.

I work outdoors, often in remote locations. Phrases I have used:
- Make friends with a tree.
- Speak with a tree/have a conversation with a tree.
- Commune with the bushes.
- Wander over this way alone.
My field partner often speaks of watering or fertilizing the forest, which I find distasteful because it gives a sense of which act they’re performing and I really don’t need to know that about my boss.
Those are great lmao.
And wow yes, I hate it when someone says “I’m going to pee/piss” or “I need to take a shit”. Like just say you’re going to the bathroom, or, you know, voiding (jk) like a normal person.
Names are words, so “words” refers to both collectively. “Elimination [of waste]” or “voiding” for the second one.
Elimination
Scat fest. Mob shitting.
Battleshits.
Names are words. And make up one for the pooping and peeing thing. Something like peeooping, only more proactive.

Peelooping
This sounds like a different thing I’m imagining now. If anyone’s seen Upload…

“Titles”?
How would language have ever come about then?
“1s and 2s”? … no, not good enough.
If you think “relieving yourself” is disgusting, use a polite white lie.
Just say you’re going to the bathroom to snort coke.If anyone is interested, you can call food and drink collectively “victuals”. That’s another one I was looking for.
“Victuals” is the source of the term “vittles”, if you’re feeling particularly folksy.
Brilliant! Thanks
