Euphemisms....

... for sex:
spending some quality time
making the beast with two backs

...for anal sex:
visiting vegemite valley
riding the chocolate weasel

...for masturbation:
spending some "me" time
polishing Darth Vader's helmet

... for vomiting:
technicolor yawn
driving the porcelain bus

C'mon peeps, post 'em if ya got 'em. Two of each kind, like with Noah.

vomiting:
'flaming yawn' (filet Mignon?)
Talking to god on the white telephone

Btw, here's something I have been pondering: is there any word for bathroom/outhouse/restroom/powderroom/WC that isn't a euphemism? The only ones I could come up with were 'shitter' or 'excrematorium'. The latter of which isn't even a word.

Pie - in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (by edward albee) George says to their dinner guests, "I'm going to the euphamism," meaning the loo.

So, you see, the bathroom can be referred to simply as the "euphamism" and you're being literary as you say it. Comes in handy when your dining with snobs.
