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?

But it still makes you sound like a waiter...

"any moment now i'm going to blow my load over your jubblies/baps/jugs/norks*"

*or other such zoo-ish derivations of the fine mammary
