American slang for a toilet or outhouse, particularly associated with carnival and circus culture. The term appears in the argot of traveling show people (carnies) and is one of several carnival-specific words for bathroom facilities. Not widely used outside that subculture.
'Where's the donniker?' the roustabout asked, and someone pointed him toward the far end of the lot.
Origin: American carnival/circus slang for a toilet; exact etymology unclear but well-documented in carny argot. Editorial expansion authored on Slangora (model-assisted, hedged).
