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?

well, they kinda work against evolution...
an example of the breed can be found here, whereas an example of Neanderthal man can be found here
Note that both have the low forehead with heavy brow ridge. The vacant expression and mouth hanging open are possibly just coincidence.
Yes, in-breeding in the aristocracy many generations ago produced genetic defects such as haemophilia, but the in-breeding seen in the chav population actually seems to have reversed the evolutionary process.
Wow.
