In our language "sitting" is a synonym of "meeting". So in the office setting, I always say "I have an important sitting coming up".

"Gotta see a man about a dog."

Had a coworker that would go the the bathroom and sit in there for 10 to 15 so I started calling it a "Tony ten-er."

A silly Dutch one is saying you got a fax from Darmstad, which is a city in Germany but also Darm=intestines and Stad=city.

[-] CareHare@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago

In Dutch or Flemish at least we say: Ik moet een grote boodschap doen.

Which is a literal translation for: I have to make a big message.
