This is a question 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?

"Ear...check out little Courtneys nipple rings" will be the sort of thing heard in shapping malls all over England within about 2 years.

My sentiments exactly
If I went around sticking bits of metal in toddlers ears, I'd be nailed to a fence. By my ears.

Indeed.
Though over here (Belfast) they tend to be both peirced and then slung into either a Rangers or Celtic football top as well, depending on what side of the fence you're born on. It looks, so, so bad.
