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?

I wouldn't ever pay for still waterbut a good sparkling water is the bizniz and carrying big bottles of it about all day has cured my Lucozade addiction and therefore my fat arse. Makes yer skin clear and helps stop you overeating, too.
San Pelligrino if I can get it, Perrier if I can't, Asda's 2 litres for 17p right now because I'm poor.
Still get called snobby for walking about it, though. Usually by the same people who say "Whoa, you look great! And you've lost loads of weight!"
