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?

heh
- judging from what I've read since Thursday, I am common. However, the sooner Stoke's Croft gets demolished and redeveloped, the sooner my house price rises, so I'm not that common.
