Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

{{citation needed}}
The key to "deadpan" is the use of "pan" as theatrical slang for "the face" (reflecting the use of "pan" to mean "skull," found as early as 1330). Going off of this, there seems to be some support. The Word Origins page for skull says: The Old English word for 'skull' was hēafodpanne, literally 'head-pan'.

{{ for etymology's sake}}
A typical flush toilet is a ceramic bowl (pan) connected on the "up" side to a cistern (tank) that enables rapid filling with water, and on the "down" side to a drain pipe that removes the effluent. ... The water in the toilet bowl is connected to a pipe shaped like an upside-down U.
