Has anyone mentioned ‘outhouse’?I remember them. I think you're the first to remember it here, though. When I was a kid we'd go to visit relatives, outhouse was the only option. Gotta be a codger to think of that! Lol

My Quaker meeting has two double outhouses still, but they have been kept as part of the historical nature of the meeting house and are no longer 'occupied'. Not all that different from the plastic Porta-potties that grace building sites and ball fields these days, but far more attractive in their own way. I have one next to the barn also that is now being used as a tool shed.

I have one at my deer camp. Used the door from my grandmothers outhouse when I built it, even has electric lights.

Fair to middling
Worked with Old Man Jack...That was his standard answer to "How you doing?"
I learned a lot from that man. Still have some old tools he gave me 35 years ago.3 -
my mom used to refer to us kids behaving as anxious 2-year-olds as having "kitten conniptions". The phrase doesn't appear to have been in common usage though 'having a kitten' does to describe being anxious.
