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?

...yes, Aussies can be very racist in an often unthinking way, and they just can't see the truth of this.
Best insult I've heard from an Aboriginal referring to white Aussies is "You Captain Cook Cunts".
