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?

I suppose I'm 'Common'.I drink Carlsberg.
I belch and fart in public, without shame.
I smoke. Sometimes drugs.
I have been known to drive a rusty Transit van.
I wear tracksuit bottoms, because they're comfy.
I ride a motorcycle. A big loud one.
I say 'Fuck' a lot.
I have friends who have been in jail.
I have a cream three-piece suite.
I like Scouse House.
I shop at Netto. Why not? It's cheap and better quality than Tesco/Asda.
I love chicken vindaloo.
But then again, I also have qualifications, a decent job, I listen to classical music, I read, and I love French art-house film. Some of my friends are teachers and scientists.
Take that society, fuck you and your perceptions.
I enjoy my life, and I couldn't care less what anyone thinks of me.

Who's common?Aldi. That's the place to shop!
And I didn't know having a large, loud bike makes you common? Does it? I have two, one in a gently rusting heap in the front-garden. Now THAT's common...
...
I do believe I out-common you somewhat.
