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?

You tell 'em!Not all common is bad. For example, look at all the joy Spimf is missing by thinking women dancing in bare feet is a bad thing. I guess that means he won't ever have a wife that dances naked. The poor man.
