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?

What...
does it class as, then?
"In MY opinion that's not REAL work...ing class"?
Would you prefer it that they sat round at home bemoaning being skint all the time because they can't get a job elsewhere for whatever reason?
