The Chinese says:
nán cèsuǒ
男厕所
men's lavatory / toilet / room
I wonder where he gets his power?
Is this a reference to Florida Man?

don't understand Pitchford-san's reference to Florida Man. Can he explain? Sounds like microaggression otherwise.

If you're ever in deep shit, Toiletman might be exactly who you need.

Doesn't anyone remember the Tidy Bowl Man in the toilet bowl cleaner TV ads? :-)

If they'd gotten part of it right, we'd have Toiletmen. Like a flock, I see them whizzing around in the sky.
À space and a plural would make it all go away.
