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'm a southerner....
And I can kick some ass if I have to, but you can't beat the Northerners for some good all out chavvy violence...
I watched Dog Soldiers (again) last night (channel 5, anyone else see it?) and cracked up at the bit where the Northerner guy gets sent outside to distract the werewolves, which he does by waving a flare and shouting COME AND HAVE A GO IF YOU THINK YOU'RE HARD ENOUGH!!!
Also, Werewolf attacks Scottish soldier, soldier screams FUUUUCCCKKK OFFFFF!!!! And twats it one.
And earlier mentioned Northerner get trapped in the kitchen with a big ass snarling werewolf and no weapon, what does he do, gets his fists out and beats it up! And right before he gets eaten, he utters the wonderful line......... I hope I give you the shits!
I love northerners, me!
Love from a Southern Fairy *You'll say it if I don't!*

Don't you think......
That us Brits just do swearing soooo much better than our yank cousins?
Americans don't get our humour as it's just too funny and complex. I love being British
**stands up, hand on heart... RULE BRITANNIA, BRITANNIA RULES THE WAVES......**
British films are the funniest ever!
