I need to take a dump. I'm going to go to bathroom.
Yes. In that example, presumably the person saying it and whoever he was addressing both knew which "bathroom" (a hint to America's puritanical beginnings - are you shitting in the bath? No. Just say lavatory or toilet. No one will blush) they were talking about. So you add the definite article "the" to give the noun definite meaning. If they didn't know where the nearest shitter was, they'd have to use an indefinite article "I need to find a bathroom at once. I need to take a dump."

I thought you blokes called it a "loo." Or is that just an Aussie thing?

If you said “I went to hospital” in North America you’d be viewed as a faggot unless you were a foreigner. Then you’d be viewed as someone who spoke banana boat English.
So so so so so . . . speech makes you a faggot?

The difference is that school and church are or were regularly scheduled activities. Therefore "He went to school. He went to church." But if school wasn't in session or it wasn't Sunday it would "we're going to the school. we're going to the church." "Hospital is not a regularly scheduled activity I hope for you so it's "We're going to THE hospital! Which one? The closest fucking one, hurry!" I love this.

We say "il bagno"... which can mean the bathroom or the bath, which we don't shit in. We love bidets. Very clean assholes.
