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 know, I know…I’m turning into Benny Hill…
For last week’s QotW, I subjected you all to a bash at poetry. Some of yougluttons for punishment lovely B3tans were kind enough to say you enjoyed my efforts and asked for more…
Be careful what you wish for in future!...
Chavesty
Half scouser, Half cockney, Half brummie
Just a 16 year old ‘yummy mummy’
She was ‘one of the lads’
With 3 kids from 9 dads
And 6 more on their way in her tummy
With her love bites (or slag rash) on show
Her fake bling and her fake tan aglow
Her whole life is a farce
But the 'tatt' on her arse
Shows the local boys which way to go
Overweight, overdosed, oversexed
Only speaks in the language of text
With a wink of an eye
She will blow you till dry
& For a Big Mac she’ll whip off her kex.
Thinks she knows ‘everyfink’ about style
From a permanent state of denial
Her ambition and goal
Is to sign on the dole
And a guest spot on Jeremy Kyle
As she waddles she turns the air stale
She’s a slag on a biblical scale
She's got ‘no time’ to wash
She makes muck look quite posh
And she's shaped like a small humpback whale
Things like ‘Innit’, and ‘Wotcha’ are slurred
She treats ‘LOL’ like it’s really a word
Her vocab is obscene
'Like...Ya Know wot I mean?’
And she smells like a freshly dropped turd
But no more for her council flat den,
And the tracksuits, and armies of men
Cos this common young bitch
Is soon going to be rich
She’ll be starring in Big Brother 10!

Hope not.
Because if it does, manually clicking just about every 'I Like This!' link with Pooflake's name in front does not improve my productivity at work...

Loving your work dahling!
I'd say your style is more suited to tetrameters or ballads rather than iambic pentameter.
Which of course goes hand in hand with songwriting.
Keep it up!

Wha?....Er....thanks (I think?)
As for ballads...I've been down that road...It's dangerous!
