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?

i used tohave the dubious distinction of working for an absolute tosser who used to answer the phone " Yes putney 8525" . this is the correct and still current number . A small prize is on offer to the first person to correctly name the establishment.
