I read a while back at the other site that we've all flocked away from. This person's first language was clearly not English, though I have no idea what it was.
Anyway, he direct translated what is commonly said in his language and I found it hilarious.
Drum roll please...
"I needed to empty my ass".
I'm my local dialect of Arabic we say some hilarious expressions for peeing including:
I'm going to fly some water (like flying a kite)
I'm answering nature's call
I'm paying the judge.
My favorite term for pooping in nature when we go hiking was:
Planting a mine
Was that last one some self-deprecating humor?
