Over the years, Adam and Josh have used mutliple different terms to describe the act of pooping. What follows is a short list of the terms they can remember at present:

Bombing Oceana



In this euphemism, Adam and Josh take on the role of bombers attacking an island civilization known enigmatically as Oceania.

Clearing the Database



This refers to the emptying of a computerized database, much like the emptying of a human one. Josh began the use of this term after Adam innocently used the phrase in regards to his actual clearing of an actual database.

Earthslide



A reference to a magic spell of the same name in the SNES game Secret of Mana.

Going for the Gold



First employed by Adam during the 2008 Summer Olympics, this phrase describes bravely going forth and giving one's all toward one's destiny.

Going to Funky Town



This phrase references the 1980 song "Funkytown" by Lipps Inc. "Funky Town", in this case, implies a somewhat unsavory and uncomfortable location (or one that is soon to be).

"It's Howdy Dookie Time"



Sung to the tune of "It's Howdy Doody Time", this euphemism was first employed by Adam and Josh's father on his way to the bathroom. As he walked up the stairs, he was heard to say in a sing-song tone "Dookie time for me!".

"Make me proud"



First used by Josh, "make me proud" was said in encouraging response to Adam's announcement that he was going to use the bathroom. It is used as a kind of acknowledgement of the announcer's intent and of the responder's expectations.

Taking the "physical challenge"



A reference to the classic kid's game show "Double Dare". If a question bounced between both teams twice, the first team, instead of risking losing double points for an incorrect answer, could opt to take the "physical challenge" in order to still get points.

To let go or let fall in a mass



This is a literal definition of the word "dump" that Adam and Josh preferred over the numerous other definitions they collected over the course of an afternoon.
