porcelain throne
Where you sit
Porcelain throne is a humorous slang term for a toilet, playing on the ceramic material of most toilets and the seated position one assumes.
The phrase adds mock dignity to bathroom activities: I'll be on the porcelain throne for a while.
Often used when someone anticipates an extended visit.
