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?

Thanks!
I'll check him out this evening when I get home.

Yes, I'm registered and am voting for Obama. So is everyone else I know. And best of all, so are my parents- two of the most die-hard Republicans you could find, both of whom really dislike McCain.

I'm predicting it won't be much of a contest.

She
scares me, God help us all if McCain won, and then died, leaving her in charge.
