CommonFreddy 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 find people who think we're in a recession common.
Granted, the GDP may be heading into negative numbers, but as of now the past two have been equal to, or above zero, therefore no recession.
