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 find that brown sauce is a natural toddler-repellent
...it stops them nicking your chips after they get a mouthful of brown sauce on the first chip. They don't try taking me food after that.
