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?

Earrings on babiesThat is all.
I just holidayed in Tenerife. My god is that place common. Full of scotchish people and northerners. As I came out of the airport, past all the taxi drivers with their signs, a local lady hocked a massive loogie on the floor of the airport. Cute.
Also, people who say 'That is all', then carrry on talking. The height of bad manners.

LoogieIs common. The correct usage would be "hock ball".
