People are only just realising what WC toilet sign actually stands for

What Does WC Stand For?

“WC” stands for Water Closet—an older term for a room with a toilet. While many of us say “bathroom” or “restroom,” those originally referred to bathing or freshening up. The term “water closet” dates back to when indoor plumbing was new, and having a designated toilet room was a novelty. Social media users were shocked by this revelation, with one person saying, “I was 23 when I learned WC stands for water closet.”

The Unspoken Urinal Rule

Comedian Freddy Quinne went viral explaining the “urinal rule” most guys instinctively follow. If there are five urinals:

Pick the first or last one.
If they’re taken, choose the middle.
Only use urinals two or four if all others are occupied.
It’s all about maximizing personal space and minimizing awkwardness—an unspoken code many men instantly recognized as true.
