In the US, there are numerous terms used to describe public restrooms. Some call it the lavatory, some the throne, and still others just the restroom. The majority of public restrooms are denoted by a “WC” sign; however, nobody appears to understand what this signifies. Now that we know, though.

Spending a lot of time online teaches you new things every day, whether it’s the hidden uses for the hooks on shopping carts, the meaning behind the initials of M&Ms, or the proper use of a cheesegrater’s fourth side.
