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?

I thought that music was thoroughly killed be people downloading songs or something. That'd explain the godawful screeches coming from the bus chavs' mobiles- it's quite literally the sound of music dying.
