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?

Fully legal?Having a massive exhaust and playing loud music causes a noise nuisance, especially where I live and the road is only four metres off my front door. Plus they routinely whizz between the traffic lights at top speed then slam on the brakes if they are still on red.
Driving behaviour likely to cause an accident. There is no need to drive like that, so I don't care if they are insured, they are still cunts.

Granted.I was probably and exception, being a reasonably safe and responsible driver. I do remember some utter shitwits who thought they could re-enact the Fast & Furious street races between car parks. They were a minority in my time though.

This is the problemIt's not really the cars themselves that are the issue, it's the drivers.
They're usually 17-25 years old and driver like fupping lunatics. It's one thing to take your Saxo to 100MPH on an empty motorway at 1AM, it's quite a different kettle of fish to drive at 60 on a busy town centre road with a 30MPH limit.
Take the twat I saw last week. Him and a bunch of his mouth-breathing mates in a VW Golf GTI driving as fast as possible round a roundabout and using the handbrake to get some "fucking wicked oversteer"
Genius! Especially considering this is a huge two lane roundabout with 6 exits slap bang in the centre of a large town at 5:10PM on a weekday evening.
