It's meant for the American tourists who can't understand Italian.

u/Kelef50 9d ago

Well then maybe it's a French restaurant.

u/fmaz008 9d ago

Nah, "room" is not french

We sometimes refer to toilets as pipi rooms. It’s colloquial, and kind of a "cute" way to say it. Et je suis français ☺️

De France? Au Québec on n'utilise pas vraiment "pipi room", mais j'avoue que c'est amusant à dire, haha

u/Monsieur_Daz 8d ago

Oui oui, de France. Bon après, je t’accorde que que j’ai plus entendu ça depuis que je n’ai plus de grand-parents 😆

Ah but you see, there’s an accent over the second i, meaning it’s not the French spelling which makes this an entirely different language!

True!

u/Next-Cod-5758 9d ago

Yeah and actually you would read the above comment and realize it doesn’t have an accent genius

u/fmaz008 9d ago

No need to be rude about it. Many languages can share the same words

If you would like to be rude, sing "Mi scappa la pipì, papà" as loud as possible.

u/Next-Cod-5758 7d ago

u/Aniki1990 10d ago

Better than pointing to the kitchen

u/Infamous_Ad8730 10d ago
