A bathroom isn't a neologism.

Nor would it be unfamiliar to a 5-year-old.  Not sure what the lower age limit of awareness of the term is these days; I suspect it's constantly dropping unless the kids these days don't use it (I'm otherwise guessing that tweens could know it).  There are a few synonymous acronyms referring to the same thing as the LPWB.   

Note that the antonym of the LPWB word is patterned similarly (compound; same second word) to the LPWB word, with the first word of the compound antonym derived from a term coined by a mathematician in the middle of the 20th century.  The antonym itself was coined by an author in the 80's.  If you get the antonym, the LPWB will fall solidly in your lap.

Last got that yet? Post

I'd better take the Last Post, in that case.



Slow in here today - everyone must be busy in *LPWB word*.

A sci-fi author, if that's relevant.

Possibly relevant...

Revisiting another clue:  Don't get steamed up about the literary (sub)genre from whence the LPWB word (and its antonym) originate.  Close, but no boiler....

Oh, and as there were some inquiries about Greek, although it won't help you with the LPWB directly, a Greek derivation could steer you towards the antonym.

Btw, does it have something to do with IT at all or are we chasing nondomesticated fowl here?
And are your repeated use of words in connection with cooking/boiling rlevant?

Yes, it does have one syllable two many. It also has two syllables wrong.

Didn't know I was using cooking terms (I often speak in food metaphors, not surprising) - yes, they are potentially relevant (broiling more so than boiling) but not directly to the LPWB word.

You've solved as far as 'cyber' (sub-clue, not part of the word, although I've devoted a serious amount of cluing at it) without apparently using the actual boiler clue: 'no boiler' and 'don't get steamed up' refers, in the negative, to steampunk (nothing to do with it), considered a literary sub-genre of cyberpunk (relevant).

Re-ponder the clues, this one is as good as solved...

Last doesn't refer to IT and especially not to AI but you are looking in the right direction for word origins Post

Now all the syllables are wrong. ;)

The LPWBW is a place (or a state, but not the political kind) moreso than a thing.  The antonym has already been revealed, but not by me.
