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?

appologies- pot kettle im afraid
fair point i do drink from the can/bottle as it saves on washing up- only recently dropped the habit as i live in a country where only bums and hobos drink from the can.
my point is that drinking from the can on the main road is the only thing they do
