CommonFreddy 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?

'the women who sleep with anything that moves'I take it they'll be like the men who are all bastards...or the ones who are all rapists.
Making generalisations is an extremely lazy way to write and also a sure-fire method for getting the moniker of ignorant twunt.
Generalisations are also extremely common amongst those with precious little experience of the world yet full of the arrogance of youth.
And yes, I am aware of the irony inherent in my last statement.
