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?

HmmmAlso Wiccan, wearing a discreet pentagram necklace under my shiurt, along with two tiny pentacle earrings and a silver pentacle ring on my right hand. Does this make me common?
I understand what you mean about people jumping on the bandwagon, but tarring the genuinely religious with the same brush is slightly harsh in my view.
Although I do agree that my friend's mum scares me when she comes over with a 6-inch cross hanging over her chest like a nun. But I wouldn't say that's common - more ostentatious.
