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?

just thought of one
Rough-looking tramp-stamped mothers are bad enough. Shouting and swearing at their kids in public is worse, however, rather than saying. "If you don't behave, I'm gunna smack your arse", I heard earlier,

"If you don't stobbit, I'll knock you out in a minute"...
