How it's used
Refers primarily to the physical cover of a toilet, but is frequently used as a derogatory or humorous slang term for a bowl-cut hairstyle. The term carries a strong sense of mockery when applied to hair, implying the person looks unkempt or ridiculous. It is considered quite crude due to the inclusion of the word for excrement.
