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'm friends with everybody
I didn't mean any offence, just as I didn't in your last post.
I was being ironic, you see, you were saying that people who swear too much are common, so I swore too much.

Well, in that case
Please accept my gracious apologies.
I was lead astray, by that terrible man, Burt.
