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?

« Go Back

Going out on the town with your mum

Drunken harridens bulging around elacticated waist bands and plunging tops coloured like dead animals.

The cackle of a thousand Lambert and Butler; the smashing of primary coloured, brown tooth rotting alcoholic fight starters.

The shouted claims of sisterhood and comeradery as if the key to a healthy maternal relationship was to bond over broken stilettos, vomit and STIs.

The volume, oh dear god the volume.
