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?

This
is a story of people that are actually common. Much better than the other tales of people who pronounced a word slightly differently to the norm. Shock horror!

I've met these kinds of people and they really are hellish. Glad they're out of your hair now. Although some other poor fecker has to deal with them now. Should never be allowed to breed.
