Yeah she actually means the Pluralism Benevolentiae. E.g. when a nurse is saying “We go to the toilet now, aren’t we?” but it actually means “You must go to the toilet but I will be there with you”.
There is also the Pluralis inclusivus like in scientific texts. Which I personally find really weird.
But be careful: do not press hard on the toothstick. It will splinter and then you will have a real problem getting the port clean. Source: my phone port :(

So this meme would only make sense in Old High German.
Maybe I put it wrong, but it works even better in modern Germany: “Stuhl” means chair in modern German. The joke/pun is well-known in German: “Darf ich Ihnen den Stuhl zurückschieben?” So unlike in the English version, “Stuhl” literally both means “chair” and “poop”.

Great to see a fellow frog in the wild!
I am guessing this comes directly from German
The German and English wikipedia have interesting information about the etymology of the English chair and the German Stuhl:
Chair:
Chair comes from the early 13th-century English word chaere, from Old French chaiere (“chair, seat, throne”), from Latin cathedra (“seat”).
Stuhl:
[…] althochdeutsch stuol ‚Sitz, Thron‘ […]
(Old high German stuol meaning ‘seat’ or ‘throne’
Das Wort Stuhl […] ist mit l-Suffix zur indoeuropäischen Wurzel *stā-, *stǝ- ‚stehen, stellen‘ gebildet.
(The word Stuhl is built from the proto-indo-european language by adding the suffix ‘l’ to the root ‘*stā’ or ‘*stǝ’ which means ‘to stand’)
So both means seat/seating or throne but chair is more a throne-like furniture (by having arm rests and/or back rest) whereas Stuhl was more like a simple stool (a small foot rest or seating without any back rest or arm rests). In German we use “Schemel” or “Hocker” to describe such a stool. “Schemel” seems to come from “scamilla”, Latin for small bench.
I have no idea how all this information helps us, but it’s interesting :D
It works at least in German: Stuhl is both the furniture and the term doctors use to describe poop.
Aaaaaactually the vehicle they used to fly also bestrides some space in itself

Poe’s Law, but inverse?
We also need something like a Poe’s Law part two: send Trumpet into exile. Let a man have hope.
