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?

Some posts.The inane humour, the toilet jokes and knob gags, The stories that range from fleeting sexual innuendo to stonkingly blatant erotic fiction.
The posts that lead you up the garden path before smacking you with a pun or a shit joke punchline.
The political and topical commentary that flits from the lighthearted to the rage-filled scathing attacks.
The posts that show us some people are obviously disjointed from standard reality.
The heartfelt tales of sorrow and triumph over adversity, that give people a chance to bring some deeply buried feelings and emotions up to the surface, and share them with the likes of us.
ALL of these things are all common…
but unfortunately…not as common as I’d like.
