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?

Few things grate on me morethan supposed adults, particularly women, saying "sammich" or calling pasta "sketty". That alone is enough for me to mentally cast them into the cesspool and want nothing more to do with them. She might look like Aria Giovanni and have a sky-high libido and be homed in on me- but if she uses baby talk she's GONE.
