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?

Ah...
The joy of cowardly trolls who send nasty private messages.

The best way to deal with them?

Post the message on Off Topic - let everyone see who they are and what they're saying.

As far as I'm concerned if someone has a problem with something I've said by all means send me a private message to point out where they differ, politely. Sending a PM just to be nasty - that's cowardly.
