CommonFreddy 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?

If it was a sketch it would be funny, but real life....A girl in her mid-twenties, heavily pregnant in the pub when england were playing in (i think) the world cup. She was stood right next to the big screen with a pint in one hand, a cigarette in the other and an england bikini top. She stopped short of resting the pint on her bump but she certainly knew how to get the rounds in, people actually let her in to the bar before them to get another pint. Some people really have no chance before they're even born, poor little fucker.
