“Went to the bathroom earlier and took a poo. Not sure whose it was, but it’s mine now”

When someone goes to the bathroom to “take a dump,” there is no actual “taking”—except in jokes.

“Went to the bathroom earlier and took a poo....not sure whose it was, but it’s mine now” was posted on Reddit—Oneliners on October 1, 2020. The same joke was posted on Reddit—Jokes on October 8, 2020.
