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?

Truckers.
They're pretty fucking pikey. A friend of a friend once worked for a bastard trucker (socialist parents, named him after the instigator of the Peasants' Revolt) who'd mocked up a fake franchise to build Korean liquid-haulage vehicles in darkest Wales, and my friend's job was to sell these fictitious lorries to unsuspecting companies.
He was Wat's Taff Daewoo tanker scam man.
