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?

Encylopaedias
Same thing happened a little while ago when we were playing Millionaire at work as part of one of the sales incentives. Chavvy bitch I have to spend my working day with exclaimed "I don't spend my day reading encylopaedias do I?" when she didn't know the answer the a question and one of the lads did (she thought an inhabitant of Poland was a 'Polisher').
No, it's called having an interest in the world around you, you stupid bitch...
