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?

i've had 2 phonecalls from brighthouse
in the last month. it seems that people i know have given me as a reference and fully expect me to say how great and reliable they are.
obviously they don't know me as well as they think they do.
