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?

Fish
My own Dad is one of these people. He hates the smell of fish but thinks nothing of stinking the house out with the smell of fried kippers! Also he can't stand pilchards but loves grilled sardines, I believe I am correct in saying that they are the same fucking animal.
That is all.
