What Does the “WC” Sign Mean?

A couple from TikTok, Shelby and Dylan, shared a video in 2020, where they were talking about the difference between Americans and Canadians.

“What in the world is a washroom?” Dylan asked. “And what are they washing in there? Oh, it’s a restroom. The only thing I wash in there is my hands,” he then continued.

Then Shelby asked, “Do you rest in a restroom?”

“That’s a good point. They both don’t make much sense,” Dylan said.

As the Mirriam Webster’s Dictionary explained, “water closet” is a noun which describes, “a compartment or room with a toilet” or “a toilet bowl and its accessories.”

In short, it means “WC.”

In Reddit, a user asked to other users, “Why is a public WC called bathroom if there is [no] bath?”

A Redditor commented under, “Americans might similarly ask: ‘Why is it called a WC (water closet) if it isn’t even a closet?”

“In Russian it’s ‘a room without windows’ even if there actually is a window,” then a different Redditor shared, “In Esperanto, it’s necesejo, or ‘necessary place’”

They were instructed to keep away from singing about Jesus. The way they respond will take you by surprise…

It’s true that Little Big Town had one of the most incredible nights of their lives on the evening they were admitted into the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee. The first show of the series featured a lovely rendition of “Why Me Lord,” the result of a collaboration between country singer Vince Gill and Little Big Town. Many individuals, including the author, had goosebumps as a result of the performance, which left a lasting impression.

With Vince Gill, the foursome—Kenna Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Jimi Westbrook, and Phillip Sweet—worked together to produce a masterpiece. “Why Me Lord,” which was written and recorded by country music icon Kris Kristofferson in 1972, has been performed by a wide range of performers throughout the years. However, the performance featured in the video is regarded as one of the best of all time.

It seems that Vince Gill was informed about Opry policies prohibiting musicians from playing Jesus-related songs. As the story behind the film suggests, this was apparently done to avoid potentially upsetting non-Christian audience members. Vince decided to carry on with the performance despite this, and it appeared that the audience welcomed it with enthusiasm.

The video can be accessed here for those who would like to witness this incredible collaboration in its entirety. Kindly feel free to express your thoughts by leaving a Facebook remark and telling us exactly what you think!
