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?

Errrrr, No 1....I do that, I'm afraid.
But I do it quietly, and save the flush for once I've finished so as not to give the game away. Only a number 1 too, I'm too ladylike to ever do number 2, ever...
Would you still mind if you had no idea I was doing it?
Edit: I only do this as my sister has a habit of keeping me on the phone for an hour plus. I also eat my lunch, smoke cigarettes and completely switch off to the point where she asks what I think I panic and mumble something like "yeah, great idea" as that always seems to work.
