    When someone says washroom I automatically think of the water closet.

    Bathroom but does anyone, anywhere, actually call it a washroom?

    I mean seriously

    It's bathroom or restroom

    Maybe it's a regional thing

    Who even calls it a room? Just off to the toilet/loo.

    Sharks is wrong. Washroom isn't a real word.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    I call it the bathroom or the restroom, but I've heard it called the washroom before so I think of bathroom when I hear washroom. I'd never heard laundry room called washroom until his family

    It's led to some confusing conversations

    It depends on the region/ accent you use. Some regions take their language to specifics. It's most noticeable when you're talking with people whose primary language isn't English. Makes for fun conversations when you're visiting other places, or impromptu pictionary games.

    I just tell people I'm taking a dump. They can usually figure out what I mean.

    Man, that is even more leaving nothing to the imagination.


    In answer to the OP, washroom makes me thing of... sinks. I don't think of either a bathroom or a laundry room. Just sinks.

    I do both my pissing and my laundry in the can.

    Bathroom. Because apparently we decided language is useless and words mean nothing.
