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?

Dirty commoner habits......I was told as a kid that if you farted, burped, coughed, sneezed, shit and pissed all at the same time that you would explode.
I'm still trying to find out if it's true, so I guess that makes me as common as muck.

a nasty virus last year...taught me that if you cough, sneeze, urinate and have an explosive attack of flatulence/diaorrhea at the same time, you are left with a horrible empty feeling in your middle that is akin to a very fast lift going upwards with no warning.
I wouldn't recommend it.
