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?

the general public in publicEating: really, are you SO hungry you can't wait to be indoors before stuffing your face, or chewing some indigestible blob of artificially sweetened plastic? Drinking too - there was a time when folk could survive without a bottle of water in their hand - remember - or perhaps it was before you were born? In fact anything that parades animal needs in public is sooo common - this includes masticating, pissing, shitting, vomiting, masturbating and yes, dammit, breathing, why the fuck does everyone have to breathe so much... it... is.... so..... common!
