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?

This is a QotW answer I've got a cold
They're quite common, and I'm not posh enough to have gout.

This is a QotW comment Gout? Posh?
Mr Pooflake and I would disagree.

Unless he is actually the Duke of Westminster in a very convincing disguise.

This is a QotW comment I'm the queen actually...

So it's a cunting brilliant desguise!

Also, I went to the quack this week and have been put on some tabloids that are meant to sort me out so I never get gout again...

Woo!

This is a QotW comment My dad's had gout
and he's not posh.

What about Legionnaire's disease? The only person I know who's had that is quite well-to-do.

This is a QotW comment Gout was know as the 'Rich Man's Disease...

Because the Uric acid is highest in 'rich' foods, and things like real Ale.

Ironically, I investigated a bit and it turns out that food and drink nowadays is so full of chemical substitues and additive crap that it's no longer cut and dry what causes it.

Incidentally, I get gout because I have a kidney wasting disease which means I don't properly piss the acid away...but don't get me wrong, I'm right fucking proper posh, me.
