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?

Why thank you Al!!I'll take that as a highly treasured compliment. Does this mean you forgive me for being a music stealing turd?

Oh I could neverforgive you for that.
I don't think I was actually calling you a turd, I was just taking the opposite point of view for the sake of having a good argument. Personally I love to steal the music, though I do so in the full knowledge that I shouldn't.

*Big kiss*...and the turd was entirely self-inflicted!!
What shall we argue about next week?
I wish 'The Big Issue' was a bit more left wing... [ducks}
