When I was a kid and we would be out camping or in the woods, if I had to go to the bathroom, my grandfather would tell me I needed to use a 'pee tree'. Not knowing how to identify a pee tree I would go from tree to tree asking "Is this a pee tree?" until he finally told me I had found the right one, and got a good laugh of course.
