Common
Freddy Woo writes, "My wife thinks calling the front room a lounge is common. Worse, a friend of hers recently admonished her daughter for calling a toilet, a toilet. Lavatory darling. It's lavatory."
My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.
What stuff do you think is common?

There are many indicators.
Eating with your mouth open is a definite sign of ill breeeding. Most horrible is the wide open, chasm mouth technique of eating crisps, whereby the eater subconciously, or otherwise, attempts to CHOMP down on teh crisp in such a way as to make as much fucking noise as humanly possible.
Pouring fizzy drinks into small babies bottles. Common and just plain fucking stupid.
The infamous 'Greggs Dummy' aka, any child in a pram with a sausage roll in a greggs bag at its mouth in an attempt to keep the mewling brat from spoiling any shopping or tab smoking opportunities.
Skirts that are just far too short for any self respecting girl and are only suitable for sex workers.
Scabbing cigs from strangers without so much as a hint of self respect.
Arguing in the street.
