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 disagree with the own brand food and supermarket clothing; common is in how you act and what you do, not how big your budget is.
I've always thought that expensive naff designer rubbish is more common/chavvy than a bog-standard pair of jeans for £6 from Tesco.

exactly
if i can get something similar in size/quality for a cheaper price, damn sure I will, and maybe more than one of.
And, quite a lot of "supermarket's own" food is quite good, and occasionally better than the "real deal"
