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?

as has happened to me you wear prescription glasses. Get out of the car wearing prescription shades, leave normal ones in car because you are only going to be a second . Get caught up something happens and you have to go inside. End up inside feeling like a bit of a prat.
