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?

Not so much my mug
The coffee perc in my own office has never, ever, been cleaned. The jug has only ever been rinsed with cold water. I have had the perc for about two and a half years.

It makes me black coffee that lets me see through time.
