This is a question 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?

/momentary seriousness
If you are being genuine, (and I'm beginning to thing that you are), you have a poor grasp of tongue in cheek humour.
You also seem to take things more seriously than is mentally healthy. Step back for a moment, and take a nice objective look at what you've written on this thread. Someone posted a comment on a board, and you just wanted to call them a psycho-spastic. Honestly? If you have a difficult time with people taking the piss, perhaps you should need a little break from the net, just till you get your head sorted out.

Now I'm more than happy for your seeming spiral of self destruction to go on, but I just thought I'd better check first.
