When someone, presumably a coworker at any type of logistics, warehouse, or production facility, has left their desk to use the bathroom, and as soon as they clear the room get a phone call. Such-and-such is "In the warehouse" is a more polite way of saying that they are away from their desk, in the bathroom, and can't come to the phone. May also be given as an excuse for any absence from ones desk or work in general, even if the person giving the excuse has no idea where said person is.
"Hello, can I please speak with Ian?"
"Unfortunately he's in the warehouse right now, can I take a message?"

A New Zealand chain store, somewhat of an icon. Also known as the 'Red Shed'
The catch-phrase is "Where everyone gets a bargain." Maybe not in every case... but you can find some pretty good cheap stuff.
The price of EVERYTHING instore ends in '99' for some straaange reason.

To store not-yet-drunk beer or other alcohol on the side during a drinking game, as opposed to actually drinking it. An extremely bitch move, if not illegal by state and/or federal legislation.
After Grilled Cheese won the beirut tournament, his trophy was taken away when Bobby pointed out that he had warehoused enough beer to feed a family of four for a week.

A mental institution. The term was inspired by the sad state of the mental health "industry" in the United states.
The lawyer closed his briefcase, and sighed. "90 days in the warehouse for Billy, and then back onto the streets he goes, with a month's worth of thorazine and $100, courtesy of the state."
