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 White Supremacists
I mean, for the love of heaven, if you really believe your race is superior, why not prove it by curing cancer, developing an engine that runs on seawater, inventing the warp drive, stopping starvation, etc., etc.?

It's not like getting stupid tattoos, dressing like an idiot, or writing marginally literate screeds about racial purity is really going to prove your point.

(Maybe it's for the best though, it would be a little awkward if some inbred bigot opened a "Space Travel for White People Only" agency.)

This is a QotW comment Although
i find black extremists, and the Muslim ones just as bad. Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam come to mind.

This is a QotW comment ...
Extremists of any variety are dangerous and hurtful people. Unfortunately, they're all too common!

This is a QotW comment In their mind it's easy
We would already have cancer cures/seawater engines/warp drives etc etc if it wasn't for all the blacks or jews or insert-favourite-target-here holding us back. Scary, really.
