  • Basic Trope: Bathroom usage is not dealt with in-story. * Played Straight: During the course of the series, no mention is made of a character using the bathroom. * Exaggerated: No evidence suggests that bathrooms exist! * Evidence shows that bathrooms exist, but they do not contain toilets. * Justified: Bathrooms and related bodily functions are not relevant to the story. * The characters are Starfish Aliens or Fair Folk who do not excrete bodily waste as we do. * The story covers a short enough time period that no one should need a bathroom break. * Inverted: A character is shown explicitly taking a dump mid-story. * All characters use the bathroom more often than people do in real life. * The show is about using the bathroom. * Toilet Humour * Subverted: A bathroom is seen * Lance walks out of the bathroom with a satisfied look on his face. * Double Subverted: But no one is seen using it. * But we never saw what he actually did in there; for all we know, he just washed slime off his hands. * Or the satisfied look on his face is the result of getting some action in the bathroom with a Love Interest...or himself. * Deconstructed: Not pooping turns out to be a symptom of some sort of disease. * Reconstructed: * Parodied: Everyone suffers from constipation. * Nobody excretes any kind of waste, not even so much as carbon dioxide. * Since nobody poops, nobody knows what poop is or what toilets are for. * Lampshaded: * "Why do we have a toilet anyway?" * Averted: Characters are seen using bathrooms regularly, and it is occasionally a major plot point. * Enforced: Let's face it: do we really want to see people doing gross bodily functions that eat up major plot time? * Invoked: The characters all eat oatmeal with peanut butter mixed in. (Which is delicious, but is also akin to pouring concrete down one's GI tract, If You Know What I Mean.) * Defied: A character gets up, grabs the Daily Tribune, and heads to the bathroom. * Exploited: The Big Bad causes all the bathrooms to become unusable for some reason. * Discussed: "Hey, don't they ever stop for a bathroom break?" * Conversed: "Why in the world would you even care about that?" * Played For Laughs: In a Deconstructive Parody, Potty Failure ensues. * Played For Drama: The plot is trying to find the bathroom.
