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?

Gout was know as the 'Rich Man's Disease...Because the Uric acid is highest in 'rich' foods, and things like real Ale.
Ironically, I investigated a bit and it turns out that food and drink nowadays is so full of chemical substitues and additive crap that it's no longer cut and dry what causes it.
Incidentally, I get gout because I have a kidney wasting disease which means I don't properly piss the acid away...but don't get me wrong, I'm right fucking proper posh, me.
