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?

doors wide open, happily chatting away to each other.this happened to me in cheltenham! there's a group of gypsies that go and the men sit at one end of the bar and the women at the other, and i walked into the toilets to experience the same thing, they looked completely unphased that i'd walked in and could see everything. bizarre!

Perhaps...it's an open invitation to join them? As a bloke, I'm glad I'll never have to witness any such thing.
