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?

Microwave kebabsMy mother denies having ever heard of them, let alone keeping them in the freezer when I was 18, for when I came in late.
She fucking did though.

Riverside Foods reckons it has improved its monster kebabs. They now microwave from frozen in just four minutes.
Launched last year, the monsters weigh in at 130g and are made with fully cooked, juicy, tender pieces of chicken breast meat.
The food-safe kebabs come in a variety of flavours to suit any customer. Chargrilled and Salsa are particularly recommended, as are Tikka, Lime & Coconut, and Apricot & Tamarind.

And truly..........they are an amazing foodstuff. I've never eaten anything that tasted less like food.
They come out of their microwavable wrapper (paper bag) all sweaty and dripping with oily water. The meat is like boiled labia minoris trimmings, and the lettuce is usually brown and tiny.
Sometimes, on a good day, someone will have accidentally dropped 0.4 grams of onion on it.
Amazing
