This is a question 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?

*clicks*
I think the point people miss about racism in particular is that it's not highlighting the differences between two races, it's highlighting that those differences matter, or that one is superior to the other.

Your post on wiggas (as they are generally known here) was far from rascist, merely a humourous observation as to the differences between white and black cultures and how ridiculous one looks when attempting to copy the other.

Jolly good rant, sir.
