Toilet humour

Redirected from Toilet humor

Bodily functions such as urination and defecation arouse intense anxiety in many people. For this reason, there is a whole sub-genre of humour, toilet humour based around excretion. This is particularly popular with children.

Much of the lyrical content of avant garde rock musician Frank Zappa's songs revolved around toilet humour, eg, "Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat that yellow snow" (from the album Apostrophe[?])

Many forms of toilet humour involve euphemisms for excretion, such as the following:
