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?

I hope this
is a joke, but then again given the state of this country it's all too easy to believe.

It is,
but I liked it...



I think I have used that same joke while working with young people, kind of gets the point across.
