Common
Freddy 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'm in disagreement
with you about pork scratchings. Pork-rindy food of the gods I tells ya!
Eating on the phone is a big no-no and as for the bog-roll, folding is best.
