What's Your Code Phrase?

[skywench]

If I have to visit the loo while at work, my coworker and I have a code phrase we use. "I'm going to take a long walk" is our super secret language for "I'm gonna go pewp!"

Does anyone else have a "code phrase" they use for when they have to GO?

oo:

 

[RFarmer]

"I'm gonna go take a bath" ... But mainly because I never "pewp" without taking a bath after

 

[DustyKat]

"I'm going to drop the kids off at the pool"...not really a secret code though...:ylol:

 

[Carrie630]

I don't have a code phrase, but I think the mad dash for the bathroom probably says it all.
My code phrase for 'my D is so bad I can't leave the house' is that I'm getting sick. People equate 'getting sick' with puking, but whatever, that happens too if the D is bad enough!

 

[Jessi]

Daughter: "Too-da-loo!"
Random stranger: "Off to the Urination Station..."
Husband: "I need to go see a man about a horse."
Friend: "Gonna lay some hard pipe."

lol @ Jessi

I just say that I have to "go." Everyone I know knows that that's code for diarrhea.

LOL @ Dusty-that's the best ever!! My nephew, (who has digestive troubles too) is 11 years old and can read me like a book. When he notices me looking anxious in a public place he'll say, "Auntie can we go for a walk?" When we come back to the rest of the family he'll say "We had to go to the bathroom." He's an angel!

Love this thread ... we need to come up with one. I usually just embarrass my son with direct questions ... or even worse. He teasingly mimics me saying "This is my son Danny, He has DIARRHEA." Which come from things like telling a shoe sales girl that asked us his shoe size (to which we had no clue), or from asking in a crowd of people "Are there port-a-potties in the corn maze?" .... I've gotten much better ... but still have a long way to go.

 

[sawdust]

Swab the poop deck.
"Leave" a dump. (Why would anyone take one, seriously?)
Check the plumbing.
Make sure the toilet still works.
Take my book some place else.
Solve all the world's problems.

But, usually, it's just that noise that comes from a cartoon's feet when they run away... that triplety bongo noise. I have yet to see the cloud of smoke, but I'm sure it's there.

I usually say ' just going to send a fax' or 'I'll be in my office' (I don't have an office by the way!) but everyone knows if I'm missing they don't have to look far to find me! Lol! Xxx:ysmile:

 

[Crohns08]

Usually if I'm out with my sister I'll whisper something to her and she'll make something up on the fly for me. She's pretty good about covering for me =]

 

[Jessi]

My husband has been throwing this one out lately...

"Off to Help the Browns win the Superbowl"

 

[Sailorluna]

I tell the kids "Dad's in charge!" as I run for the bathroom. It doesn't work. They still stand and yell at me through the door. "She broke my stuff" "I want a sandwich" "Can I go to the neighbors house?" etc. (sigh)

 

[ellipse22]

For me it's usually the look on my face or "look out"

 

[Crohn's 35]

I have the look also or uh oh! My husbands says "go Penny go"" :lol:

 

[ameslouise]

Love this one!

I usually just say I have to go "DMB" - which stands for "dump my bag". In the old days when I pooped out of my butt, I would say "I have to see a man about a horse."

 

[Jessi]

Ames - you and my hubby have the same sense of humor.

My post (about 12 or 13 posts above this one) mentioned the same code phrase. LOL!

 

[Grumbletum]

Mine is really subtle. I run in the house - usually with my legs crossed, which is quite difficult, chuck my bag and yell: ' I gotta PEEEEE.'
Happening a lot less often since my fistula healed.

'The DRIVE'!!!!! (oh yes...old Bronco fan me)

I never needed a code word before I got Stan ya'll.

Just picture a 9 1/2 month pregnant womans face....running, knocking all down who may be in her way. Yup. Who needs a code word, just PANIC!!!

 

[Del]

Some great codes here..
I am lucky in that i am never in one place to long, so people do not know where i am.
But if I do have to tell someone where I can be found I usually say "I am going to pray for a while" I still get funny looks from people when they here it....

This sounds better in Spanish and it is not very secret:
"I am going to say goodbye to some friends of the inner country"

 

[skywench]

Braveheart,

You must give us the Spanish translation!

 

[hedge]

my 2 y/0 daughter calls it "bathroom fan time"

 

[carolhew]

When I was growing up my family always used the phrase "I am going to study or I need to study". Now with my husband I tell him I am going to drop some kids off at the pool. When I am constipated (which is most of the time) I tell him the kids are afraid of the water! :ylol:

 

[Scifimom]

Husband "I am going to pay a debt at the grocery store"

Me "You know where I'll be"

Voy a decir adios a algunos amigos del pais interno.

Mine do the same thing. What is the deal? Why are we never off-limits? :ybatty:

 

[braveheart]

The excact spanish is: "Voy a despedirme de algunos amigos del interior."

‘interior’ is a wordplay in this case.
In Spanish means ‘inside’ and in Argentinean folk it means ‘the country side’.

Braveheart,

You must give us the Spanish translation!

Voy a decir adios a algunos amigos del pais interno.
