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 actually lived in West Drayton in my second and third yearIt made Uxbridge seem quite metropolitan and sophisticated.
I still remember walking down the high street wearing my suit just before my graduation and never feeling so out of place in all my life.
