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?

My mum does this......
And I always change it around too.
Just to wind her up I don't even put the toilet roll on the holder, just kinda sit it on top of it.
And I use my tumble dryer in the summer as she hates it.
And I refuse to save a measly few quid washing my car by hand, i take it to the car wash.
Kids, if your parents wind you up, wait til you've grown up. You can get them back, and they can't tell you what to do any more mwahahaha!!
