Right I'm confused.

You're in the bedroom but they go to the restroom

Which fucking one are they in?

restroom == bathroom

So there has to be a bath in it? Is that not inconvenient?

The place with the toilet that you poop in.

The toilet! Gotcha!

The Middle French word 'toile' ("cloth") had a diminutive form: 'toilette', or "small piece of cloth." This word became 'toilet' in English, and referred to a cloth put over the shoulders while dressing the hair or shaving.

Got em

It's the room where you rest your butt to poop. The restroom.

It's where I rest my brain from the stupid at work. Being able to sit on a nasty commode with my nethers exposed is a bonus.

I'm in my kitchen right now

ok

now im in my living room

how are you handling that?

You don't live in your kitchen

You don't rest in your toilet

Unless, like I say, throwing a whitey

oh I finally get what you're saying. You're taking issue with calling that room "rest" room instead of "toilet"

but seeing as "toilet" literally means "a small piece of cloth" - if we're going to go down that path, why are you calling both the room and it's commode a piece of cloth?

Oooooh it's just Americans with their funny words for things.

Obviously they mean lavatory, toilet, loo, shitter, bog, water closet, facilities, tile palace, WC, khazi, ceramic throne of dreams, privy, latrine, etc.

You've never seen a bedroom with an attached restroom?

I've never seen anyone rest on a toilet

Wait, no, I have done while throwin a whitey

They earn a dollar while I earn a dime that's why I shit on company time.

Congrats for always having had good bosses.

It's restful because you're not watching... At least without a consent higher than "let's have sex"

I don't--- it's one sentence! Is this a language issue...?

They are trying too hard to force a language issue when there isn't.

There are many reasons toilets are called the restroom dated back in history. However these days it's mostly just considered a polite way of taking care of one's business, without projecting to a partner that you may be taking a massive duce.

are you not familiar with houses having attached bathrooms in the master bedroom?

Its a thing here in NA for suburban homes, and for houses in europe to some degree im guessing.
