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 Common People?
I knew a girl once, she came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge. She studied sculpture at St Martins College. That's where I caught her eye...

Edit: I'd like, having seen the replies, to now try and pass this off as ironic in so much that I was giving a tongue in cheek answer which has been done at least four times before. Now that's common ... ;)

Guessed it may have been done already, but there was no way I wanted to go through dozens of pages looking for it!

Damn my slow brain for taking so long ;)

I knew I should have left QOTW alone today. Why can't I leave it alone for just one day?
