Potato Masher

The potato masher was/is a British wording for the German Army's Stielgranate 24. It was used by every the entire Wehrmacht.

Due to it's shape and appearance it was called potatomasher by the British forces. The video game Call of Duty 2 features this fact. Interestingly the Soviet Red Army's soldiers are calling the stick grenade potato masher also.

Nowadays the German Modell 24 Stielgranate is one of the most easily recognized WWII small arms.
In the USA the Stielgranate is collected like stamps by some collecters. Especially the US soldiers returning home took one or more home with them as a "Souvenir out of the Reich".

Call of Duty 2 example: "Potato masher! Run!"

Potato Masher

The act of hiding the evidence that you pooped in a sink or bathtub by smashing your stool with your foot or hand until it has become mashed enough to flow smoothly down the drain. Covering up any evidence that you defiled a bathroom.

I live in a one bathroom apartment but my roommate was using it at the time, so I had to think quick without destroying my pants. So I squatted over the kitchen sink and then proceeded to be a potato masher before my roommate was done in the bathroom.

Potato Masher

A fun variation of the standard hand job. The man lies naked on a kitchen counter, and the woman proceeds to jack him off.

We were bored last night, so we moved into the kitchen where my gf gave me a potato masher.

mashed couch potatoes

Oftentimes what you'll find left behind after a tornado and a trailer park merge.

It's a simple recipe. Only 2 ingredients are needed to make mashed couch potatoes: a tornado and a trailer park

You don't even need to add the tornado, though.
Just let the trailer park attract it.
