CommonFreddy 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?

Hey, there's a reccession on, you know!If Joe Bloggs can't afford to buy that loaf of bread to feed his family, why should Hugh have to wait until they're 18 to start making money from them when he could be going for their (playboy, natch) purse from age 8?
Seriously, though, I think the problem there is the word "Play" being really kid-friendly.
They really should make it mandatory that all these Playboy accessories come with a copy of Playboy.
